[council] Deadline for Public Comment

[Liz Williams]

Marilyn

I think you're right -- and they're about to be more fatigued with  
Wellington.

I suggest that we leave the public comment forum open but that, for  
the purposes of capturing input for the next version of the Initial  
Report (which will go out today) we deal only with what has been  
received by the deadline.

To confirm, we have many contributions via the call for papers and  
also through the public comment archive.
