seem like a simple administrative matter, our agreement is to conduct our activities on a “default open” basis unless there is a clear reason to conduct activities in closed session. I realized the prior emails had not been copied to the public-experts group
list and wanted to address that matter. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D">Below is a draft extension of the Call for Candidates from Grace for our consideration. I am fine with the extension and I have a question about the extension.
As drafted, it would close the call for candidates on the same day the public comment period on the accountability process would close. Is anything substantive “lost” by closing the call on the same day the comments close? If so, closing the call beyond
the close of the comment period, even if for a matter of a few days to fully consider any comments received late in the process, could make sense. What are your views? Thank you.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
