Note the following message I just sent to the SOAC list regarding opening the 
call for AoC RT applicants.  As soon as we have our draft process, I would like 
to send it to Marco & Janis if no one objects. Can we finalize the proposed 
process not later than tomorrow so that Bill may send it to the Council list by 
then?  If so, then I will send it as a draft to Marco & Janis.

The soonest the GNSO will be able to approve the GNSO endorsement process will 
be 10 June but we should be able to provide a proposed process in a few days.  
As long as it is properly qualified, I think it would be okay to post or refer 
to the proposed process until it is officially approved.
