Re: [gnso-vi-feb10] Call for agenda items

["Mike O'Connor" <mike@xxxxxxxxxx>]

good deal.  

i've been having a sidebar conversation about a possible proposal and came up 
with a little series of questions.  what if each proponent took 5-10 minutes to 
walk us through their ideas, touching on these questions in addition to 
whatever else they want to tell us.  at least for me, i sometimes find it 
helpful to write a series of "FAQ-like" questions and then answer them as a way 
to quickly sketch out an idea.  anyway, here's a starter-kit, feel free to 
add/subtract...

Pretty-Good Proposal FAQ:

- what is the proposal?

- are there changes needed in the Board resolution for this to work?

- is this a policy thing or a best-practices thing?

- what are the barriers in the way of doing this?

- what are the pros and cons?

- how do consumers fare?  

- is there experience out there already?  how about research or analysis?  any 
"foundation" documents that could be referenced?
