AW: [NCSG-Discuss] Good examples of NCSG member comment on the CCWG proposal

[Sam Lanfranco]

NCSG Colleagues,

not made moves to participate in the NomCom in any way, shape or form. 
There may be more substance behind non-participation than just 
discomfort with the possible terms of participation.
