Gathering rights/Permits issue

I've started a discussion about the issues between DLNR and native gatherers here. Lately, I've also been involved -- through my job, so I can only discuss these really carefully -- in issues between DLNR and Kanaka Maoli fishermen, involving the question of "camping" (i.e. covering a sleeping child with blanket and tarp or other covering), and access to sacred sites. I have had pretty extensive legal discussions about these things so I feel like I'm pretty well grounded from a legal perspective. However, because I am actively working on solutions, and all Kanaka Maoli, especially cultural practitioners, have an interest in these solutions, I want to hear as much mana'o as possible. Go for it!
