Yes, I know what is happening. I heard council record.
Certainly, my comment was put forward too late.
And as you know, the redrafted ToR had also been submitted too late
immediately before council meeting.
If possible, I will add up more comments before Amsterdam meeting.
Anyhow, we should work in this situation.
And, I am not sure well what is being prepared for Amsterdam meeting.
Robin and Norbert, will you go there?
I hope more concilers representing NCUC could be present at council
meeting although this vacation season is very tough even for anybody.
regards,
Chun
