It was correct at the time he sent it but when I called you on Thursday I also called McCain rep and canceled. Sorry for the confusion.

Joie --

Just wanted to forward you this message from Blake.  My understanding is
that we couldn't meet with your team until after our convention.  As I
read the email below, it sounds like your team is meeting with the
McCain team before their convention, or am I misreading Blake's email?

John/Melody,

It was a pleasure to have met both of you last week; thanks again for
your time.  As indicated in our meeting, when we receive a request from
one transition team for a document or meeting, we plan to both (i)
notify the other transition team of the request and (ii) make available
any document response or meeting option.

To that end, I am writing to let you know that the McCain transition
team has requested a meeting next week between its lead personnel rep
and members of the Presidential Personnel Office.  We are accommodating
the request and would be glad to do the same for your team, if desired.
We ask that, consistent with past practice, any requests for documents
or meetings come to me in writing so that we have a record of the
request and can jump-start the process (drafting an NDA for the meeting
participants to sign, scheduling the meeting, notifying the other
transition team, etc.).

Also, we are working to get the Presidential Personnel binders cleared
for transmittal as well as to determine the feasibility of GSA procuring
a robust IT system/database suitable for both the transition and the
White House.  I'll keep you updated on our progress.  Please let me know
if there is anything else I can do to help.

Best,

Blake
