[governance] update on drafting groups

[Adam Peake]

Update on drafting groups. From yesterday we were left with 
governments trying to agree on three options:

(1.) Observers will not be able to participate in drafting groups.
Intergovernmental only.
(2.) Observers will be able to make written or spoken comments at the
start of a drafting group session and will then be asked to leave.
(3.) Observers will be able to make written or spoken comments at the
start of a drafting group session and will be able to stay as silent
observers.

These options were discussed again this morning and governments 
cannot agree.  So the meeting asked the chairman of the prepcom, Amb 
Karklins, to decide on which of the 3 options would be adopted.  We 
are slightly hopeful that we might get option 3.  Options 1 and 2 are 
not acceptable.

So we are waiting.

Adam
