RE: [council] Draft Agenda for New gTLD meeting 15 Jan


Alan,

Note that Glen's message said, "The call will be open to observers and
alternates if Council members cannot attend."  I would conclude from
that that an alternate could attend if you are unable to do so yourself.
But I think that saying 'open to observers and alternates' could easily
be interpreted more broadly.
