Greetings all,

I regret I have not been participating in the dialogue as I have been

100% agree.  The 45 days is definitely more reasonable, but we should
take into consideration the holidays (and end of Y2K watch :-))

Also agree.  I think what we have come up so far is reasonable, and
hey, this won't be perfect the first time by a long shot.  We should
take some "rational" leadership and try to elect the first GA chair
so at least we can try to set up some processes to help the GA become
a productive entity including be able to interact with the NC a little better.

Best,
