That is right, I fired that proposal off to our policy cttee...and I think we have agreement that it is premature to disengage from this. Other SGs may feel entirely different though.

But mostly, we need to talk this one around a bit. cheers Stephanie On 2016-10-28 13:44, Edward Morris wrote: > Hi Ayden, > Thanks for the question. > I believe Stephanie has indicated that she will request a deferral on > this motion, an action I most certainly support.
