Zahid, your analysis is extremely helpful.<div><br></div><div>I have a few thoughts. One is about how disturbing this is as a 'precedent', as well as the specifics of what has actually taken place in terms of the outcome/content; e.g. what the present proposals are/and the work before the Council on the Board letter. </div><div><br></div><div>I had understood that this letter would be part of your Council/Board dinner. If that is the case, it would be helpful to keep that in mind and plan to have a discussion with the BC membership again on Monday, BEFORE the Tuesday a.m. breakfast. </div><div><br></div><div>When we discuss this at the ad hoc huddle tonight, can we also get a debrief from you not only on this, but also on how the discussions go today with the GAC. </div><div><br></div><div>You are making a point that I have a concern about as well. It appears that due to somewhat overwrought pounding on the table by a small extremely vocal set of players!
/people, significant changes have been made.</div><div><br></div><div>The way that the IRT was set up was driven by a Board resolution. The initial approach to the participants was in fact broadened from the 7-8 IP attorneys chosen by the IPC into a broadened approach that was not totally open, but was composed of 'experts'. The work product was then put out for consultation and comments taken. </div><div><br></div><div>I am thinking that what we are seeing is that the staff then made major changes, having taken comments 'selectively' into account. </div><div><br></div><div>I think we have to ask ourselves the following: IRT recommendations, and following on comments. On balance, based on the predominance of comments, do we think that the staff recommendations /proposals reflect the comments fairly and on balance? </div><div><br></div><div>I ask that question because I am thinking about 'recourse' if we believe that our interests are harmed by this acti!
on/failure of action. </div><div><br></div><div>Will be very good
to talk about this tonight. </div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br><div><div><div>On 25 Oct 2009, at 02:10, Zahid Jamil wrote:</div><br class="ecxApple-interchange-newline"><blockquote><span class="ecxApple-style-span" style="border-collapse:separate;color:rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:Optima;font-size:medium;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;font-weight:normal;letter-spacing:normal;line-height:normal;text-align:auto;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;white-space:normal;word-spacing:0px"><div lang="EN-GB"><div class="ecxSection1"><div style="margin-right:0in;margin-bottom:0.0001pt;margin-left:0in;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri, sans-serif"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:'Times New Roman', serif;color:rgb(31, 73, 125)">This document was prepared for a meeting held yesterday between the IRT and Staff (Kurt, Dan) and a Board Member (Bruce).</span></div><div style="margin-right:0in;margin-bottom:0.0001pt;margin-left:0in;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri!
