I think the resolution I emailed week before last asked the Area to issue a resolution to the CESG.  It wasn't in what has become the approved format for thos resolutions, so maybe it can't be acted on yet, in which case it will unfortunately have to wait until I get back into the office on the 28th; I haven't got my computer with me at this point.

I've yet to hear anything back from the Secretariat on merging the Pink Sheets back into an updated Blue Book.

I'm not sure.  I know what we agreed to do at the meeting, and I think you sent out an email authorizing expenditure of resources on that work, but it's possible that the CESG has to weigh in on this because it's a cross-area effort.  Your thoughts?
