[soac-newgtldapsup-wg] Re: proposed agenda for August 5 meeting + comments

[Carlton Samuels <carlton.samuels@xxxxxxxxx>]

Dear Karla:
Rafik and I agreed earlier this week to an agenda item: Responses to the 2nd
Milestone Report.

Please edit and reserve 5 mins for an agenda item: "Public Comments from 2nd
Milestone Report - Impact on Final Report?.

Do please post the Summary of the Comments document staff prepared to the
list.  We will request that this be added to the Notes Section of Adobe Room
on tomorrow's call.

Kind regards,
Carlton
