Dear Council Colleagues,
dear Bruce,
dear Glen,

I have not been able to participate in the recent discussions for 
technical constraints  (computer/network). At present, the heavy rainy 
season makes it difficult to maintain stable wireless and satellite 
connection ("rain degradation") I will try to be online on Thursday, but 
maybe it will not work for me.

All the more I would like to ask that the council can discuss again the 
possibility to create proxy vote facilities.
