Re: [gnso-metrep-wg] Mikey's hack-job on the charter

hi Jen,

sorry about the sluggish reply.  today's a travel day and bad driving weather 
to boot.

by all means redline these thoughts into the draft.  i think your comments 
would be a great addition.  i'm happy to try to juggle multiple red-line 
versions if others want to do the same.  

some reactions to your points

1) yep, i think working the idea of methodology into this draft would be fine.  
i was trying to balance that "methods" part of the work with the "improve the 
process to submit problem reports and the data analysis of those reports" goal 
of the RAPWG and i may have gone a little too far away from the methods part.  

2) the "goals" section is largely a lift from the RAPWG work and, while it's a 
good list, it wouldn't hurt at all to sharpen it up a little bit.

3) i'd love to see that assumptions section you're describing.  i deleted the 
assumptions section that was there because i didn't think it added much to the 
draft (sorry Berry), but i'm quite interested in seeing what you're thinking 
about.

thanks

mikey
