The weekend is already shaping up to be pretty full, but we will do everything possible to accommodate any requests.<br><br>2. I invite you to join us prior to the formal start of the council meeting on Wednesday 10 April to update the council and community on outcomes of your constituency and SG meetings the day prior. If you'd be so kind, please confirm back to me that you'll do so -- this will help with time planning for the day.<br><br>As usual, the week is crowded with meetings and activity, and council leadership is aware some groups are considering weekend meetings of their own in order to prepare for the rest of the week. I hope your councilors can nonetheless attend the majority of the council's work sessions.<br><br>Please let me know if you have questions or if I can help you in any way regarding council plans and activity.<br><br>Many thanks --<br><br>Mason Cole<br>GNSO Council Vice Chair<br><br><br><br></div></blockquote></div><br></div></body></html>
