<div dir="ltr" align="left"><span class="881154222-10052011"><font face="Arial" color="#0000ff" size="2">I believe there's urgency because the Board may not
understand that (a) the GNSO Council just got the report; and (b) hasn't
reviewed it, let alone approved it. If the Board acts on the report
without knowing those (IMHO, very important) facts, they are acting on
incomplete information. </font></span></div>

don't understand why there would be), I'm happy to ask IPC leadership to support
my sending SVG's statement to the Board as a statement from the IPC, and other
constituencies/SGs can follow suit - or not.</font></span></div>
