First one sounds good to me. If you want to avoid negativity, saying "this will be possible..." sounds better than "this won't be possible..." ;-)

[MI]: Noted .. will add it to the new version that is to be circulated shortly .. Although, personally, I would be reluctant to leave the last sentence "But the ICG cannot give these objections any weight if the person made no effort to participate in the operational community-convened process." .. I think it's a bit negative and I don't think it adds ..


:) Perhaps it does sound a bit negative, but I don't want people to get the (wrong) idea that they can short-circuit the process and appeal to us to get their ideas implemented. Can you think of a better way to phrase it?

[MI]: :) .. Does any of the following work?

-        "If you think your ideas have been ignored or not fairly treated in the OC proposal development process, you can express this view directly to the ICG or in the public comment period.  But, of course, this will be possible only if you have already participated in the relevant operational community-convened process."  or

-        "If you think your ideas have been ignored or not fairly treated in the OC proposal development process, you can express this view directly to the ICG or in the public comment period.  But, of course, this won't be possible unless you have already participated in the relevant operational community-convened process. "
