<p class=MsoNormal>Now that we have democratically identified a facilitator for
the forum, can we collectively discuss the agenda of the meeting? This will
help in making sure that we achieve what we want to do at the forum.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>So to begin with, I had floated some issues, so probably we
could use the next few days to “panel beat” and come up with a
concise programme for the forum. I reproduce the ideas I had floated earlier
for you indulgence.<o:p></o:p></p>
