Do I correctly understand from the above that the purpose of the meeting is
to formulate a proposal, not to discuss the question of whether moving in
this direction is a good or bad idea?  Thus, only (in Duke Galmr's terms)
pro-Principality folks and fence-sitters need attend?  I can see advantages
to that approach (when a yea vs. nay debate is held, eventually, everyone
will be focusing on the same proposal) but on the other hand it seems
likely to disguise the actual evolving balance of opinion.
