with several people, in anticipation of possible action in our Council meeting
tomorrow, I made some changes to the previously distributed and posted draft
motion regarding the Alternative Proposal recommended by the Special Trademark
Issues Review Team. To make it easy to see the changes I made, I attached
a redline version. I also copied the amended motion
below.</font></span></div>

need someone to make this motion or another one and then someone to second
it. Because the motion has not been formally made, there does not appear
to be a need to ask whether my proposed amendments are friendly. Clearly,
anyone who makes a motion may rewrite it however they like. The purpose of
providing a draft motion was to facilitate the process.</font></span></div>
