RE: [gnso-iocrc-dt] Apologies for Wednesday Meeting

["Gomes, Chuck" <cgomes@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Jeff,

In saying "we will note the NCSG objection to the consensus call" I assume you 
mean that we will note the NCSG answer to both consensus call questions is 'no' 
rather than noting that the NCSG objects to the fact that a consensus call was 
made.

Chuck
