Frankly, I have not seen any indication on any public lists that the
OGB intends to solidify a response.  If the OGB intends to operate
transparently, then it'd be nice to see the OGB members start to
discuss *openly* what the response should be.  So far, I haven't seen
anything other than expressed displeasure from a handful of OGB
members.  In fact, based on my rough count, I've seen more OGB members
seem resigned to accepting the move as-is than OGB members who have
voiced any type of disapproval.

While it might feel good, complaining isn't governance.  =)  -- justin
