Re: Liaisons interoperation with NOMCOM members

["Joel M. Halpern" <joel@stevecrocker.com>]

I disagree.  I believe that many of the reasons for having the liaisons at 
all are impossible if they are excluded from most conversations.
I do not believe that there is any damage from having the liaisons in the 
room.  I find your analogy misleading.

I have not significant objection to the alternative proposal of giving the 
chair explicit power to exclude the liaisons from selected discussions.

Yours,
