I'm sure there wouldn't be anybody who wouldn't agree to accommodate Gilles. If it's okay with Gilles, perhaps he could, as he sees fit, snack. There will be times when we have to have a group meal, say during an evening sitting or something like that, but it would probably take more time out of our meeting to pause and have a lunch for everybody. If Gilles is okay simply to manage his own eating during the meeting, certainly I think people would understand.
