    I didn't mean this to be ad hominem at all, or even ad comitetem or
    whatever the Latin would be for "to the committee". Technical
    disagreement on one item is not discredit. In general the UTC's and
    WG2's work is excellent. But the point of ballotting processes and other
    checks and balances is to further perfect their work by giving others
    the chance to find and probe its weak points. Some of those weak points
    have been highlighted by the negative votes on the WG2 amendment. I am
    sure that the UTC and WG2 will take them into account and perfect their
    work.
