Firstly, welcome to Sue.

Secondly, and this is directed more at the Board, I understand that
Sue has been hired as a "consultant and special advisor" and not as
Executive Director at least partly because of immigration-related
restrictions on the work she is presently entitled to perform in the
United States. Will the Board be providing the community with a
description of the position "consultant and special advisor"? Are
there any substantive differences between this position and that of
Executive Director?
