Of course the usual InternetNZ secrecy means that non-members can't see what's been said on their behalf until it's too late. InternetNZ was supposed to change its policy on secrecy after the last AGM so that almost everything was in the open.
Andy, this issue almost slipped by un-noticed by InternetNZ. It was only a last minute sighting by Rick Shera, and a very late night effort in drafting, that we got any form of submission in - literally 14 hours from time of notice to filing submission - David Farrar alluded to that in his posting earlier. If you can advise how consultation could occur within that kind of time frame, please advise how? If you think InternetNZ should have done nothing due to the tight time frame and inability therefore to consult, then say so. But please don't make spurious allegations about secrecy!
