Dean,

You said:

<<I'd like to point out questions (reproduced below) raised last year by Gonzalo about the TOIP draft.>>

I'm happy we can come back to the crux of the matter. I thought Gonzalo's comments were quite correct actually and I would hope they were addressed in the rewrite. But clearly, an "outside" view on this would be helpful, authors are sometimes so close to the matter that they don't see everything in the same way. Maybe Gonzalo can comment on whether or not he feels the draft addresses them appropriately.

As to your suggestions:

<<1) Get a focused review team together to hash it out.
2) Talk about it in Dallas.>>

Personally, I'm quite happy with either of these. My feeling is that with time in Dallas at a premium, a review group would be a very workable solution and could offer the "outsider" view that I alluded to above. That should not exclude or prevent a good discussion in Dallas, so I think these are not mutually exclusive. 

An alternative that is maybe a bit quicker and with less overhead for the group could be to refer this matter to the chairs for "arbitration" and set a specific date for that process to be completed. I'm aware this adds to the chair's already heavily loaded agenda, so feel free to shoot this suggestion down.

As to the final one:

<<3) See if we can rent a boxing ring in Dallas and do a "winner takes 
all" resolution. I predict a lot of action on side-bets, but I'm not 
sure we'll make much off the direct-to-video royalties.>>

Can't we do something a bit more civilised, with electric chairs or something, blood stains are so hard to get out of your clothes.

Guido
