Re: [council] GNSO Council Email ballot


Amr, Glen, all,

Thanks very much indeed. Sometimes the so-called "quick questions" prompt the 
most discussion! Volker, rest assured I'm not planning to create havoc! I'm 
unexpectedly travelling today so just wanted to be sure that I vote on time and 
do so in line with instructions. All good on both fronts.

Best wishes to all,

Heather
