[NCSG-PC] Meeting with the Board in Kobe

[Stephanie Perrin]

That is a great list of things Elsa, and I agree that is a very 
worrisome thought about the PDPs....sure they are not working, but 
ignoring dissidents is not the answer. Overlaps in constituencies in 
particular, given the love of ALAC, is a problem.

cheers SP
