Subject: Acerca del documento a presentar por LACRALO sobre nombres geográficos de la WT5<br>
Desde:Sergio Salinas Porto <<a href="mailto:presidencia@internauta.org.ar" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">presidencia@internauta.org.ar</a>><br>
<br>
Dear friends, until yesterday at 22.00 UTC we had time to comment and propose modifications to the document on geographical names made by Adrian Carballo on behalf of the Region.<br>
We have not seen any type of manifestation about it, which proves that this document should not have modifications and that it has gained the general consensus of the region, therefore we are in a position to proceed to send this document on behalf of LACRALO , so that regional opinion is taken into account.<br>
I will ask the secretariat to carry out the usual procedures to send this as soon as possible.<br>
I send you a fraternal greeting<br>
