Sure, I guess that would be no problem. But I don't get why everybody pulls the 'make your own amendment' card right away. We're in the discussion period, right? So I don't see a problem with asking Andrew whether he'd be willing to do modify his proposal, if he sees the merit of othere people's comments. If he does not like it, amendments can still be formulated, but there's no need to clutter the ballot without need, in my humble opinion.
