hi Alan,

i'm pretty taken with the idea of "seeing how far we can get in the time we've 
got" rather than trying to parse out in advance precisely which pieces fall 
into in the short-range and long-range sections of our work.  my thought would 
be to say that ideas fall in three categories

        -- things we agree should be done (included in short-term report)

        -- things we agree should not be done (included in short-term report)

        -- things we can't figure out (deferred for longer-term study/thinking)

i think we're quickly coming to a point where the proposals are going to be 
exploded into a series of ideas, with a matrix comparing where the various 
proposals come down.   Mike Zupke is working hard on the first draft of this 
matrix.  i don't think it'll quite be baked in time for the call on Monday 
(Mike has a 1st draft done but he wants to check his work with the 
proposal-advocates before releasing it and i think that's a really good idea).  
but soon.  at that point i think it will be easier to start working the ideas 
into those three piles and get a preliminary view of which ideas we're building 
consensus around and which ideas are going to need more/longer study.
