<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>All,</FONT> </P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>It is my understanding from our discussion
yesterday that we had rough consensus on voting to adopt the updated Council
Operating Procedures, but to state in the motion that certain areas remain
outstanding (e.g., abstentions) and to require that those areas be priority
work to be completed by a date certain.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>Two questions:</FONT> </P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>1. Is that correct?</FONT> </P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>2. What areas, other than abstentions, remain
outstanding?</FONT> </P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>I'll start drafting a substitute motion once I've
heard back from enough of you so that I'm comfortable I'm on the right
track.</FONT></P>
