I am a bit reticent at this point to propose changes. I think we have a problem. Mike Heard had a reasonable point of view as well, which is that perhaps the newtrk charter wasn't quite as constrained as it needed to be for this kind of change. I do think at this point and time we are not making the best use of the IAB, but again, I don't know what changes I would propose to effect change. I do wish we could have a broader discussion.
