I forgot to adjust for UTC.

I mentioned it in case there was a mail delivery issue.  Although I 
am curious about the UDP issue, I won't ask more about that as it is 
related to DNS.

Over here, people are allowed to shop for groceries twice a 
week.  There are a few restaurants which offer online delivery 
services.  The restrictions will be gradually lifted.  As a comment 
on working remotely, I would say that it depends on other people or 
whether the work requires physical presence.

Formal meetings, e.g. annual general meeting, are governed by legal 
requirements.  There was a news report in a local newspaper which is 
related to that.  It looks like you are taking a public policy 
meeting and an annual general members' meeting as one meeting.  From 
what I remember, the public policy meeting was not mentioned in the 
request which I made to the court in 2019.  A board takes decisions 
through board resolutions.  There isn't any resolution related to 
COVID-19.  I read a local newspaper as I find it useful to be 
informed about the public health issue.  If I am not mistaken, there 
is a 14-day quarantine for anyone coming into the country.

The Appeal Committee responded to the appeal which it received and 
published its findings.  I gather that you know that I am aware that 
the document does not say anything about escalation.  I'll put in a 
request at the next Board meeting and mention the information which 
you provided.
