Yes - someone reminded me that we also went "closed" in DC earlier this year as well...I'd forgotten about Melbourne.

I didn't see anything earth shattering that would necessitate > this rather drastic step. We were talking about the budget approval process. Closing the doors allowed us to have a candid discussion about the budget and the surrounding dynamics - it was useful and short term. I believe that Elana has an action item to fully communicate details to all registrars over the next few days. Hope this is useful... -- Regards,
