Hi everyone,

As we close in on the last couple days before Worlds, here are a few final
reminders for Berlin:

   1. *US Rep *- I've been emailing you all out of convenience since I was
   already on this list, but I should officially introduce Samantha Sanders
   from Brown (copied here and on previous emails), who is our official US
   delegate (as Secretary, I can't also wear the US rep hat at Council). Some
   of you may have met her at Yale; she'll also run the caucus, so you'll see
   her then. She's incredible; you're in far more competent hands now.
   2. *US Caucus *- We'll work out a time and location for our caucus
   meeting in Berlin, with the goal of making an announcement during the
   tournament and notifying everyone via this email list (provided that we're
   able to schedule the caucus at least a day in advance). Members of the
   Auckland <http://www.aucklandworlds.com/> bid (including Ben Woolgar
   from their adj core), and Malaysia
<http://www.malaysiaworlds2015.com>bid (including Jonathan Leader
Maynard from their adj core) will join us
   for the beginning of this meeting to answer questions. Please review the
   bid information (summarized in this comparison
document<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1AxXP7eJ89kayzaDmXoMVWZ0lmQAC9LzrGtXXozDv970/edit>)
   in advance if posible. We'll also discuss the other issues on the agenda
   for Council, including Steve's registration
reform<http://wudc.freeforums.org/registration-reform-t160.html>proposal,
Anne Valkering's language
   criteria <http://wudc.freeforums.org/language-criteria-t161.html> agenda
   item, and likely others
   3. *Special Session (Break Reform)* - Once again, voting closes at
   11:59pm on December 25th (tonight). You can vote
here<https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/viewform?formkey=dHYxRlNsc1VDLVYzSnl6cmNpanJFNVE6MQ#gid=0>
   .
   4. *Eligibility* - If you're concerned about the eligibility of any US
   debater<https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0An53xBSHztBydExXT25iS29FbDV2Y0lXR1dtQXhEdmc#gid=1>,
   please bring that to our attention as soon as possible, so we can clarify
   anyone's status before pre-Council.

Thanks,

Samantha and Coulter
