Hi,
Thnks for sending this.
I think we need those extensions to our charter from the chartering
organizations as soon as possible.
I also suggest we still submit our Milestone report/comment repsonse ASAP and
get on with the next stage.
Given the schedule that was put out, which Eric sent, I think it would be good
it we managed to finish the basic work in a month.
I do not propose waiting for the chartering organizations for us to start,
rather, I think we should close the discussions on the current documents, send
them off and jump right in do defining how we want to continue with the task at
hand.
I actually feel somewhat heartened.
a.
