Lakshminath: No problem.  Thank you for your time and effort on
this.

And since the BoF, much has changed to narrow the scope of the
charter down to more manageable pieces as well as establish a
channel with IRTF to move certain aspects of the work there
(as the timeline in my previous email indicated.)

But I believe that we have done exactly that: the list has been
busy since Dublin on attempts to move the work forward in a manner
that is conducive to all participants.

I sincerely do not believe that we are trying to whitewash any
issues here.  It would seem an awful waste of time of the ADs,
IRTF chair and list participants to engage in detailed discussions
since the Dublin BoF if that were indeed the case.

Thanks,
