review</TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE><BR>This issue appears to be the only one at
the moment for which there are strong different points of view. In my
view of the list discussion, there seems to be quite a bit of support for
removing the word 'preliminary'. Avri suggested a slightly different
approach than Stephane but I don't think anyone else has commented in support
of that. If anyone is supportive of Avri's approach or some new
compromise, please speak up. This could be the last issue we need to
resolve in the draft ToR.<BR><BR>Is anyone aware of any other ToR issues to
resolve?<BR><BR>Considering the short time frame, it would be really helpful if
we could move on from our ToR discussion to actually fulfilling the tasks of
the ToR. I would like to propose that we start working on the ToR tasks
in our call on Monday. Does anyone object to
that?<BR><BR>Chuck<BR><BR><SPAN style="LINE-HEIGHT: normal; FONT-VARIANT:
