I believe you are correct in describing the WG's unfortunate
disposition towards this issue. (Naturally, I object...)
I've tried to get discussion of this moving a few times with very
little success. Honestly, I've been a bit surprised that you haven't
been more active in taking the lead on pushing the conversation forward
and ensuring that threads addressing the issue don't die out, given the
strength of your comments on the issue in the past and the obvious
significance to your business. In the flurry of discussion of various
issues that's been going on recently, I can't remember whether you've
stated a specific opinion on the best way to solve the problem or not,
and if so, whether it has been affected at all by discussion or related
changes that have occurred since it's original expression. Perhaps
you, who are probably in a better position than any of us to speak from
experience on how to deal with this, could refresh our memories of
specifically what you think the best solution is.
