John,

Thanks,  yes that could have been clearer, things got played out of order.

My "That's not the proposal" was recorded by the scribe with the incantation from <jar>  "/me'd" into the log which means it does
not propagate into the meeting record. To help the scribe <jar> reincanted his utterance out of order (as noted) to which the
'That's *not* the proposal" was my response.

Apologies for any confusion caused - we should have reordered that in the published (draft) record.
