RE: [gnso-ff-pdp-may08] Comment Analysis: Items 9q - 9v

["James M. Bladel" <jbladel@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Dave / Paul:

This is also my opinion on most of category 9, with the possible
exception of 9v (Virgo).  The suggestion to include victims of eCrime as
a stakeholder group is a new idea, and we should either (a) include it,
(b) omit it, or (c) point out that this is addressed by the inclusion of
law enforcement interests.

Thanks--

J.

 Hi Dave,
 
 That's how I interpreted comments 9.g-9.p. The posters were more
 weighing in and/or supporting what we already have in the Report than
 criticizing or contributing new thoughts.

 James,
 
 As I try to keep pace with the posted analyses and recommendations, I
 see a
 theme. Some comments are neither critical nor contributing, but
 "weighing
 in" with a dissenting opinion or approval. It might help to acknowledge
 that
 we are interpreting comments in this manner. For example, I would
 consider
 9r and 9s as "weighing in". The interim report addressed these points,
 the
 comment does not suggest that the existing text needs to be amplified
or
 revised, so we basically are nodding our heads and saying "thanks",
 right?
