Re: [nc-budget] AGENDA/OK WE WILL ONCE AGAIN CANCEL THE BUDGET COMMITTEE TELECON
[ I suppress all explicit e-mails which are on the nc-budget list
Charon is on nc-budget ]
Thank you Charon for taking care of us.
Thanks Roger for postponing.
Would you mind, please, add to the agenda the payment of Scribe
