Hi Nevil, I noticed a few places where you typed "RSEB" instead of "RSAB". Apart from that I'm in general agreement with the proposal.

Maybe it's too specific to define the community discussion venue as "the rfc-interest list". For the breadth of community the RSAB would need to reach, other methods of discussion may also be needed.

Regards
   Brian
