[ELP] John, to keep my word, I will change my vote in favor motion #2
with the addition of the changes I proposed earlier.

But the "NEW FUNDAMENTALLY DIFFERENT FORMAL MOTION" which I will call
the "de facto standard" motion, was intended to focus this group in a
very different direction.

And while I would certainly value your backing on this new proposal, I
didn't expect it.
