Re: [RPRWG] Preliminary Agenda for September?




I'll second Mike's comments.  I expect us to start getting into the details
of what we want in the standard.  I can guarantee weeks of discussion topics
if we were to let it run on.  In reality, we need to discuss many of these
topics in detail at the interim meeting to get into a position to negotiate
between meetings, where some of the critical progress will be made.  The
problem will not be what to do with the time, but when everyone will be too
exhausted to keep on going.
