Unfortunately this communication is going out later than we'd like, with
only slightly more than two weeks until the April 8 deadline. Since the
Delegate Selection Committee feels that it can do its job in 30 days, it
will be asking the Coordinating Committee for a by-laws interpretation to be
approved by the General Assembly to extend the deadline to May 8. However
please make every effort to get your application in by April 8, as we don't
know if an extension will be granted.</EM> </DIV></DIV>
