The proposal isn't markedly different from this suggestion, except that it doesn't require that each and every team have a member in the council, but rather that groups of teams might be combined to provide a member. And it doesn't dictate that the FPL appoint blindly, but rather that these groups could select a member. I feel that consensus would be a better method than election, but neither way is ruled out. -- Paul W.
