Re: [council] Topic for Sunday night Dinner in Sydney

[Avri Doria <avri@xxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I appreciate the topics that are coming in and will probably prepare  
the poll after tomorrow's council meeting.
I was using overarching, as a category heading that corresponded to  
the one the Implementation Staff was using for these topics.
But then again I mistakenly put geographic names under that heading.

Maybe I will just use something mild like Critical Issues: and leave  
determination of whether they are gating issues or not to the  
conversation (assuming these are the preferred topics for the diner).   
I will probably follow the practice of the last few meetings of  
picking a main topic and a dessert topic based on the poll.
thanks

a.
