1.  Amr, don't beat yourself up, we walked into a trap in my opinion.
2.  I agree with David that there is no need to rush into appointing her 
as Vice Chair.
Hurt feelings are not, quite frankly, appropriate at this level. You 
lose, no big deal.  We are all adults.
3.  Let us take our time and not be rushed into anything.  This is why I 
asked for the PC meeting ASAP.  We need to assess the situation and talk 
about strategy.
4.  I want to print Tshirts for tomorrow that say "dont blame NCSG for 
the GNSO mess.  Not us."

Also, if they CSG decides they would like another CSG councillor besides Heather to serve in that capacity, I don?t really mind.
