Obviously I can't speak for any of the board members, but just from a personal
observation, I think the "white" issue did need to be addressed. Each and
every year one of the "white" factions (I know I will be corrected but I
believe there are at least two, one that wants separation, the other wants
inclusion) would send a representative to at least one if not more board
meetings to ask for whatever their cause. One was for the GSDCA not to deny a
letter authorizing them into entry of the Foundation Stock registry for the
Berger Blanc Swiss .....
Now, in fairness to the board, we, the members, keep saying we want inclusion
in decision makings and a vote. So that is what has happened, unfortunately,
like in regular politics and law etc, the "pork" ie longcoat issue was lumped
into this entire Standard change situation. Too bad, it should have been
handled as the white issue only, leave the long coat issue alone, there was
really no need to throw that into the mix.
That is my observation, I could be totally wrong (and probably am) but I do
think we have several dedicated board members that are really trying to listen
to the membership and allow their voices to be heard. So at times, it looks
like they are dammed if they do, and dammed if they don't.
I, as many others, don't think this will pass, but at least we did have a vote
in this, instead of the board just ignoring a long term issue that was not
going away.
As always, just my opinion. :)
