I certainly hope so, since there is no contradiction.

What makes the current GA weak is that it has no position on the NC.
Seats on the NC are the primary source of "power" in the DNSO. What
I proposed was making the GA stronger, and essentially giving an
avenue by which *anyone* 1) could participate in the "power" structure
of the DNSO; and 2) could have a path through which new concerns
could be brought to attention of the NC.
I don't know what ICANN would think about the idea of a GA with more
power -- it might actually solve some significant problems for them.
I use "power" in quotes, above, because one of the main problems
here is the fixation many participants have with "power".
