A subject where we might agree.  

Though I think 'evaluation team' may be a confusing misnomer as it makes it 
seem that they are doing the evaluation as opposed to setting up the 
methodology and tools for the evaluation.

But i do think we will have the chance to comment on their work and its 
appropriateness in coverage of all of the issues.  

And i think that _if_ their method includes a matrix of characteristics, we 
will also be able to advocate for our model's fits into that matrix. 

And i think that _if_ they take a case study approach we will all be able to 
offer up scenarios that we feel have not been included in their initial set.

And in the final analysis, since the entire WG needs to come to rough consensus 
at the end of the day, it is hoped that modelers and evaluators will come 
together in a model that aggregates the concerns and needs of the WG at large.

In any case, i did not think i saw any advocates with proposals volunteering 
for the evaluation team (assuming we are participating as individuals except 
for those who say they are putting for company XYZ proposal).
