  • Need to strongly avoid 7 a.m meetings, so need to prioritize. We will need to work with staff to develop a schedule with a list of topics to discussed in Singapore. We will then develop a list of WGs that have relevance to those topics. ALT - Saturday, 7th Feb meeting rather than a long ALT dinner. The ALAC Meeting with the Board is now proposed to be on Wed 8:45-9:45 rather than Tuesday 8:30-9:30.
  • Propose that Wrap Up session be on Wed afternoon rather than Thursday, if necessary; but later would be better to allow prep of anything that needs voting.

  • Working session for the RALO leadership - with ALAC Chair and David Olive.
