<p class="MsoNormal">I’m sorry for the length of the attached, but I don’t believe there’s any way around it. I reviewed the OFA Bylaws and the IBTA Guidelines for suggestions as to how to identify the areas we touched on in our meeting yesterday, and additional
areas suggested by the Guidelines themselves.<o:p></o:p></p>
