to be focusing very narrowly on why the hell they refused to publish her dissent. That’s just ham-handed nasty stuff. They won’t be able to defend it, though they may be able to defend their specific positions.

<p>probably "occupy" the 2 public sessions for EWG i.e. attending them , ask the hard questions and debunk the myth of having consensus.<br>
privacy issue was suggested by Marilia as 1 of the topics for the meeting with Board too,<br>
we also should comment the report itself in due time.<o:p></o:p></p>
