[CWG-DT-Stewardship] Update from the GNSO and draft call for observers for your review

[Avri Doria]

Hi,

I think allowing for non-joiners and other exceptions is the only way to
achieve "open to and inclusive of all stakeholders interested in
participating in the development of the proposal"

As the RFP indicates:

And yes, this can make managing the effort more of challenge.  But I
think that is part of the task to be solved.  Like all observers, they
will be able to speak their mind freely with the proscribed etiquette
for the group.
