Thanks.  They seem like rather different conversations, and the list of issues to consider on the procedural question dwarfs previous agendas for the hour.  But if people are interested, splitting the time might spice things up a little…

As you can see by Liz's email below, I requested that Staff prepare a paper listing some of the issues that might need to be considered in that regard.  Please review this and share any comments you have and provide any opinions you have about suggesting this topic  to the GAC and ccNSO.  If there are any objections to suggesting this as a topic for either joint meeting, please let me know by Wednesday of next week.  If there are none, I will suggest the topic to Heather and Chris and send the attached discussion document as well.

To stimulate that discussion, we prepared the attached draft at Chuck's request.
