I agree with you Patrick and quite frankly can't see the need for something
called a 'Young Professional' grouping or committee.
The beauty of any national or international committee, that I have belonged
to, is that the younger ( new ) members intermingle with the old ( existing)
and exciting dialogue results.
Added to this is the ability to have full ICOM voting rights which you
mention.
This type of separatist agenda to form a splinter group seems at variance
with the aims of ICOM and I am not sure of the true motives?
best wishes
Roger
