[Lnc-business] Fwd: Quarterly Board Meeting Hotel Proposals

Wed Jan 6 10:56:56 EST 2016

Your welcome Brett. I see 4 votes already, so we're on our way to a 
resolution. Tonight at 10 PM we have an LNC-EC meeting. I don't know if 
it would be considered appropriate for one of the LNC-EC members to make 
a motion to pick a specific city based on the poll results.

But just in case that does happen, I encourage people to express their 
preferences before 10 PM Eastern tonight.

And many thanks to Kevin Ludlow for putting the polls together to help 
achieve consensus.
