RE: [gnso-restruc-dt] Q5. In Section 3.1: Geographic distribution SG council members

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

Thanks Milton.  I would be okay if the exception clause applied to the
Contracted House only.  The reason I proposed an exception for both was
to attempt to treat both houses equitably.  But if it is not believed
that there is a need for an exception for the Noncontracted/User house,
then we should not include it.
