Re: DRAFT-R1 Agenda Process Call Wednesday November 1st, 9am Pacific

Regrets for the call. This conflicts with an ICANN Technical Experts
Group meeting.

Thoughts added in-line where I have them:

We were merely seeking to (a) make sure that the charter requirements and the voting rules were in accord and (b) try to make it possible to write a charter without talking about voting, because there were sensible defaults in the process.  Our edit went beyond that. We should revert and simply add these defaults.

I'd recommend to leave it out of Process, for Team handling.
