Re: Fwd: [ga] webcasting for DNSO/Santiago Meeting

[Jeff Williams <jwkckid1@ix.netcom.com>]

Adam and all,

  This requirement for the Santiago meeting is of course unnecessary
as I have also informed Theresa Swinehart in a post to the ga@dnso.org
mailing list (See archives).  They need only contact CNN or TBS whom
will be happy to provide these services for this meeting.   The fact that
the pNC/NC has not done so to date is a mystery to me....

  As such it shows that the current pNC/NC is incompetent in its
ability to do proper planning and coordination.
