confidence. Unless others have a different thought, I believe we should focus on a letter to GNSO Council outlining projects that were summarized by Ron in the LA meeting that may be useful to them and submitting the letter as a request for further direction
regarding priorities for next year. I will get with Julie to schedule a call in January.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

My goal will be to draft a letter and present it for discussion by SCI in a January call. It would be good if we could present the letter to Council in sufficient time before Singapore to permit discussion by Council in that meeting.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

Wolf-Ulrich have established between Council and SCI over the past several years.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
