Hi Paul,


> Let me drill down a bit on that. Was your process going into this "get consensus; if success, publish the results of that consensus; if fail, don't publish anything" or "get consensus; if success, publish the results of that consensus; if fail, let the co-chairs write up their own views".

You are correct, the process did not clearly articulate the details in the case of a lack of consensus.  The chairs then proceeded to make lemonade.


>> We've been trying to be as clear as possible about this and it took several passes to get to the current wording.  Any suggestions on how we could wordsmith this?

Thanks, that sounds good, will add.

Regards,
Tony
