Re: [discuss] Next Names Council Meeting

Antony and all,

  Good point here about contacting the "Provisional Names Council"
(Self appointed and non-elected BTW)

To the  "Provisional Names Council"

  Which of these "Meetings" on June 25th will be open and participants
able to "Actively" participate (otherwise provide comments ask questions).
Are any of the "Meetings" on June 25th closed or restricted in any manner?
If how or what are those restrictions specifically?  Please advise.
