Sorry, Dave, but the DNSO has already set a precedent for this.  After
all we have both a Business/Commercial Constituency, and a
Trademark/IP Constituency, which greatly overlap, with one being
nothing more than a subset of the other.

History speaks for itself, Dave.  The ICANN Board has a clear bias
against an individual's constituency. This is well known and
documented.

On this, we agree. But like ICANN did with other constituency
proposals, it could have taken the proposal and come up with its own
charter for such a constituency.  It didn't.

It should have.
