Summit Communique, and will be soliciting comment to finalize the
Communique ... note that we don't plan to be doing wordsmithing during
the symposium as we did in previous years. (07)

following, to make sure we have a most productive Symposium this year

want to see certain issues discussed during the symposium, please make
