[Lnc-business] Motion - seeking cosponsors

[Alicia Mattson]

Arvin,

This second motion hasn't been sent out as an email ballot because I'm
waiting for you to reply to my prior questions about whether the motion is
really what you intended.  Are you asking the LNC to agree to a blog
article at the link you wrote into your motion, or did you instead intend
for us to sign onto the "unity statement" at the link I noted?

-Alicia
