[wg-review] constituency composition


Historical evidence shows that certain alignments occur in the Names
Council.

For example, it is more likely that ISP/CP, BIZ, REG, IP, and GTLD will form
a voting block as a group. Thats 13 votes out of 18. This was apparent at
the last NC board election.

It is unlikely, under the present circumstances, that, say, a NCC delegate
would be elected to the board. Or a ccTLD for that matter (speaking from
personal experience).

Since it is unlikely that a suggestion from this WG to completely
restructure the constituency system, perhaps the addition of two more
constituencies at this time could create a more viable structure for open
voting, and more diversity of coalition-building.

One I would recommend is  Individual Domain Name Holders.

(I could never understand all the resistance to Joop's crusade on this one)

Perhaps the other _might_ be the ISOC.
