[gnso-gac-closed-generics] PLEASE RESPOND: Meeting dates for April

[Nigel Hickson]

Mary cc as above

Good afternoon; appreciate that this is a hugely difficult endeavour;
though at the end of day, surely it would be better to have a
successful outcome to work, even if we were a couple of weeks late?
Understand that the Board have articulated an excellent way forward on
Sub-Pro but surely it is better to have a result than going back to pre
SubPro positions.  Thus if we need a week (or more) to adjust Framework
post SO/AC comments then perhaps we should have this?  A F2F final meeting
in DC?

On dates will fit in with other obligations; though away next week
(Mon-Wed).

best

Nigel
