at the moment the parties selected because of interest in DNS matters have
1/6 of the board members, equal to the parties selected because of address
matters and the parties selected because of protocol matters.
These three together have equal representation with the people intended to
be selected based on "the public interest" (or something like that).
The ccTLDs have equal representation with the six other recognized
constituencies within the DNSO.
Seems that we have an overabundance of equal representations already...why
ask for more?
