The structure of the GNSO is going to be radically changed in Seoul. While
in the past the creation of a constituency was rather difficult, because it
was going to alter the balance of power among the different components of
the DNSO/GNSO, now with the establishment of the Stakeholder Groups the
creation of Constituencies will not affect the situation outside the SG
itself.
So, if there is any willingness to create a registrant constituency, this is
the right time. Of course, a new constituency has to fit within one of the
SGs. For instance, an "Individual Non_Commercial Registrant Constituency"
could easily be created as part of the Non Commercial Stakeholder Group
(NCSG).

Cheers,
Roberto
