Re: [gnso-whois-dt] NCA values for study priority and feasibility

Hi,

Well I was only adding the averages to the table.  The other info was  
included just for completeness sake and because i was using an  
adaptation of the full table.
The other stats while not necessarily statistically significant are, i  
think, interesting indicators.  For example they doe show how far  
apart we were or weren't on some topics and show that all NCAs do not  
think alike.
For the feasibility, I would prefer to just leave the averages unless  
others object.  My first thought, for my own evaluation, was to check  
these all at 0 since i knew that i really did not know what was  
scientifically feasible or not and was just educated-guessing.    
Perhaps others really know what is feasible and what isn't but i  
figure that at best the collective judgement will be a mixed educated- 
guess.  If you don't like the fractional values we can round them,  
though i don't really see the need.  It is interesting that so far, I  
think we have the only element of perhaps thinking some of this is not  
feasible.
