Fwd: [gnso-osc-csg] Fwd: [gnso-osc] Revised Global Outreach Recommendations - for OSC adoption by October 31
Dear Julie, please be so kind to prepare the final new version of the document so I send it to the OSC by tomorrow. many thanks and regards Olga ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Julie Hedlund <julie.hedlund@xxxxxxxxx> Date: 2010/11/4 Subject: Re: [gnso-osc-csg] Fwd: [gnso-osc] Revised Global Outreach Recommendations - for OSC adoption by October 31 To: Olga Cavalli <olgacavalli@xxxxxxxxx>, gnso-osc-csg <gnso-osc-csg@xxxxxxxxx> Dear Olga and Work Team members, I have reviewed the modified version provided by Olga and made some additional changes that are highlighted in redline in the attached document. First, I called out more clearly the goals for the outreach program as stipulated in the BGC WG Report in Section 1.1 Background to attempt to address Mason's comments. Note that the goals were included in the original document in the text quoted from the BGC WG Report, but I have listed them separately to make them more clear. Second, I made some very minor grammatical edits in the new text provided by Olga. Please let me know if you would like me to make any additional changes. Thank you.
