Re: [council] [Soac-infoalert] Upcoming invite for ATRT 2

[William Drake <william.drake@xxxxxx>]

Hi

Stéphane, are you suggesting we should not follow the procedure we agreed for 
the first ATRT?  We spent a hell of a lot of cycles on that and came by 
attrition to what seemed like the only model that was politically acceptable to 
all four SGs.  What would be the case for reinventing it, are there problems 
with it, and solutions you think would be more acceptable to all than what 
we've done?

Thanks,

Bill
