And so it is: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Table_(parliamentary)
Wikipedia confirms that it has opposite meanings in the US and the UK. So we will let the record reflect that Jonathan is referring to the UK notion of “table” and NOT the “us”.

'GNSO Council List' <council@gnso.icann.org>Ah, in the US when someone says they want a motion “tabled” that usually means deferred until later. I assume that is not the meaning elsewhere J

It all depends on your definition of "tabled"

"'GNSO Council List'" <council@gnso.icann.org>Jonathan – to clarify, you say below “It will be very helpful to have this motion tabled and, ideally, approved ahead of Dakar.”
Do you mean it will be helpful to NOT have the motion tabled.

Subject: [council] CCWG-DT: Final Charter and Draft Motion
All,
Please find attached, documents relating to a proposed motion for our forthcoming council meeting on 6th October 2011.
It will be very helpful to have this motion tabled and, ideally, approved ahead of Dakar.
In addition, I believe that it is a primarily administrative piece of business for the GNSO to deal with this motion.
Accordingly, I respectfully request a waiver of the 8 day rule which this submission has breached by less than 24 hours.
Best wishes,
Jonathan
