What I [*] would find helpful is getting the questions that you (and others) are seeking answers to on the table. I don't want to speak for Glenn but I figure that those questions may help structure the forthcoming document.

What I would also find helpful, if you clearly disagree with a choice made in the document, get your counter proposal with motivations therefore on the table.

We have had some of those questions raised in the earlier on a narrow and broad scope of the position. This document clearly opts for a wide scope. I would be interested in a documentation of the motivation for that choice, specifically in the light of the exchange of views on this list earlier.

I would also be interested why the Oversight Committee got introduced between the plenary presentation and the current document. I haven't seen a lot of public discussion that argued for such major chance.

[*] I as an interested member of the community but also as the IAB member that has been deeply involved in the reorganization process, and as a chair that will need to make sure we work towards a supported decision. And for what its worth, I see my role not as arguing for a specific outcome but making sure all important choices are publicly discussed.
