You're assuming that the point is actual change. Considering the format and the
lack of grassroots involvement, I assume that the purpose is more to be seen to
be doing something and to give the frustrated a place to vent. I take as a
given that any group seriously interested in change does not talk about roles
in the twenty-first century.
Interesting, of course, that the complaints have reached such a volume that a
token response is given. But it looks like the same old same old to me.
