[ncsg-policy] Fwd: [gnso-osc] For comment by OSC: GCOT section 5 - statements/disclosure of interest

[Avri Doria]

PS.  it also means he can't respond to any email he is copied on with asking someone else to pass it on.  unlike some lists, this list does not allow for moderated sending by non members.

Of course if he wishes to reply, I am sure someone will pass on his message.  Just as I am sure he could submit an SOI, now that he knows how much fun we are as a group.
