Minutes:

Dan: Discussed the scope of the XG and  possible extension of the charter..

Olli: Inputs from general public

Jeremy: Decisions and rationale  behind them need to be minuted for the benefit of the people who're not physically
               present at F2F..

Dan: Expected to read minutes carefully and seek corrections as necessary..
         Detailed summary will serve better. 

Raj: Email responses back-and-forth also are as unreadable..after few rejoinders...
        So, at some logical point ( since we don't know when the end-of-discussion really is)..
        a detailed summary of email-discussions also needed..

Dan: IRC  may be useful 

Olli: Sending links also becomes easy with IRC

Marc:  IRC minutes can be difficult to read..

Bjorn: We can do both IRC and edited summary of minutes..

Dan:  Planning the  XG's work  for the year

DanD: Seeking lots of proposals will imply spending lot of time normalizing them 

RajT:  Implementations are NOT part of the XG deliverables..so we don't need to push for that..
