Of some interest to the ALAC, here is a draft letter to the CEO in response to his asking for GNSO guidance on the strawman proposal. Note that this is a letter drafted by one Councillor and has not been ratified by the Council. If it is actually sent, it could well be substantially modified. The GNSO Council meeting overlaps with the ALAC meeting tomorrow, and I will be joining the ALAC call half-way through. I will report at that time how this played out. Alan

Council colleagues --
I have taken the liberty of drafting a reply to Fadi's request for Council advice on the BC/IPC request for more RPMs. Jonathan and I have spoken about a process from here and I am happy to keep the pen for possible suggestions and edits. Speaking for myself, though I realize the holidays are fast approaching I would hope we can get a communication to Fadi expeditiously.
Many thanks --
Mason
