Personally I think that can amount to a very substantial report.  You
can take "bare facts" and distill out trends and issues.  What were
the fundamental issues brought up and discussed?  Where do we have
consensus already (this will show shared core values)?  Where we
didn't have consensus, what are the *types* of positions?  And so on.
That gives the plenary a snapshot of the agreements and problems that
the pesci process is going to be up against, and the plenary can take
it from there.
