Peter Merel (pete@zip.com.au) said something about:
:-->
:-->EFA already seems to represent me in all the respects where I feel a
:-->need to be represented as an Internet participant. I do think there's
:-->room for ISOC-AU as an administrative body, but I'd still want to see
:-->formal relationships established between it and the aforementioned
:-->representative bodies before I'd support it.

You apart of the EFA by any chance? or just a vocal supporter?
You sound to be to be a EFA person who is worried about their future
or usefulness (assuming they have any)

:-->My reasoning is simply that the same ground should not be covered by
:-->multiple national bodies, or else political frictions will render the
:-->smaller bodies toothless, leaving us with representation by a fat,
:-->conflicted and useless lump of an organisation like the ACS. I'd much
:-->rather see a number of smaller, more flexible and better defined
:-->organisations, groups something along the lines of the emminently
:-->successful AUUG.

Fat, conflicted and useless lump? wow.. sounds like the EFA to me.
