One background information, which I think may be usefule is,
that
there was a suggestion yesterday for the meeting with the Borad
members
to try to provide "advice" on policy issues since ALAC is
essentialy
an "advisory" role to the Board so the sentiment there was, in
my
interpretation, let us do the job - which does not mean that we don't
have
any in-depth dialogue, but rather, that could be a part of the
dialogue.
The difficulty we faced this morning was, it is not easy to
come to a
consensus within a short morning meeting on which policy
items
are more important than the others - so we kind of agreed to
throw
all items seemingly important that time to the list and listen to
the
members opinion, in the afternoon online, as well as in the evening
if
time allows. SO this is not by any means imposing the agenda
or even ignoring
the previous agenda suggestions, but a a work
in progress. If my initial
message to the list gave a wrong impression,
sorry, but that was not the
intention at all. AND, as I see it now,
I think we are doing exactly the kind
of thing we anticipated earlier
in the morning. The only objective is to have
a prodcutive meeting
with the board. We can think and discuss how best to
achieve that
with all members ALAC with ALS and
RALO.
thanks,
izumi
