<div>My own take is that the meeting decided on some sensible changes, while
still needing to clarify others, and I welcome the institutional home within
CGI.br if that goes ahead . Much discussion centred on the replacement of
the Inaugural Co-ordination Council – suggestions included a smaller flatter
structure, a renaming (Advisory Group was favoured by some); this is going to be
the subject of a public consultation in coming weeks before this is
finalised.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I also personally welcome the idea, promoted by Wolfgang Kleinwachter, of a
NMI+5 conference in 2019, and look forward to discussions on how that might take
place.</div></div></div></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif;font-size:small;color:rgb(51,51,51)">2019 is 3 years away, an NMI conference could happen by the end of this year, followed by one every year.</div><br></div><div> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div style="FONT-SIZE:12pt;FONT-FAMILY:'Calibri';COLOR:#000000"><div> </div>
