Laura,
Let's definitely try to Skype you in on Sunday. Will you PM me you skype
name? I can't make Saturday and no one else expressed a objection to
Sunday's time.
1. If I'm not mistaken, a proposal just passed GA that was essentially a
carbon copy of what was passed at OWS. Not sure though, maybe someone
else can chime in.
2. I don't have the time or energy to work on a first draft of talking
points but Patrick has said that he's going to have them done by Sunday.
3. Sounds like an important item to talk about on Sunday
