Additionally, the council has historically been somewhat like the US Supreme Court -- they like to have their discussion and to make the final decision, but the case itself is supposed to have actually been argued and all the basic issues covered at the trial-court level (which for us is the list). Which would put us back where we started, since that pre-council-decision discussion would happen... on the list. -- Duncan - List replies preferred. No HTML msgs.
