Good morning:<br>
<br>
On the ATRT, each member was allowed to name a person to function as their
support staff or adjunct to the Review Team. I fulfilled this role for Warren
Adelman. Support personnel were non-voting members, but included in all
teleconferences and face-to-face meetings, and on the mailing list.<br>
<br>
Is this something that RT4 members plan to do as well? By way of disclosure, I
have no plans to include any support staff.<br>
