> with some respite – although we will all have our regular “day” jobs still.   
> As I result I suggest we suspend our efforts until April 16th when we would 
> reinitiate our meetings.  At this point I think we can accelerate again and 
> make up for the lost time. Our recent new approach is more efficient and will 
> just a little time from our volunteers, I believe we can catch up to our 
> original intended schedule (in terms of results).

> My question to the group is, do you agree this is a practical suggestion or 
> do you wish to suggest another alternative?

> Wendy, if the group agrees, we would ask you to communicate this schedule 
> adjustment to the council on our behalf.

> Thanks everyone.
