[council] FW: [SOAC-Leaders] Fwd: SOACs Feedback on the Draft Gender Diversity & Participation Survey by 20 May

[Michael Oghia]

I agree Ayden, good point.

Also, I presume since the document was shared and is open to comments (not
just read-only), it is open to comments. Then again, it does say
confidential at the top...
