I noticed that too but if we for the moment assume these are people 
working for a company and have been pressured/nudged to sign up it is a 
bit problematic to pressure them to now decide to either speak up 
against their employer or to potentially misrepresent the truth about 
their application.  Therefore i suggested giving them the opportunity 
to make statements confidentially to be then discussed in an anonymized 
form.  The MWG should be able to do that (maybe picking some trusted 
person from outside the OSMF to handle the communication).  But since 
they are fairly busy right now probably with the election preparations 
it might make sense to wait with that till after the elections.
