Isumi-san,
Many thanks for your update. Is there a deadline for the drafting committee
nomination? Can we collect nominations now and then decide as a group when we meet
to discuss on Jan 12 per your schedule? Or is that too late?
As part of the Bangkok outreach working group, could I propose that the other
members from the group Hamada and Patcha and myself invite volunteers (enakrge the
group) to plan and coordinate reporting as you suggested. We could also discuss
this during meetings of 11-12.
All best,
Sacha
