[NCSG-PC] Fwd: [Epdp-dt] Candidate Confidentiality

Mon Jul 2 12:39:42 EEST 2018

I see it differently, what she said, Ayden. She says if Council wants the
SSC to do it, she will be happy but she seems pushing it away and wants to
have Council run the process. I am for the later for the reasons Rafik
mentioned and some of those Susan herself mentioned with regards to the
timing. That's my understanding...
