Subject: Names Council meeting

The last open NC meeting
in LA suffered from the table layout. The NC was on the stage in a "last
supper" format. This gives the audience a great view but made it difficult for
the chair to see who wanted to speak and separated NC members (rather than
bringing us all together!!).
Open meetings are fine but should not be at the expense of
good communication.
Could you ask the hotel people in Cairo to look at a
U-shaped stage set up for the NC meeting?
