   <paulc> "If you would like us to consider a change, making a

   richardschwerdtfe: my main justification is, if we have counter
   proposals, will we have time to address them in that 1 month period
   paulc: please respond to sam
   ... would help to paramaterize, e.g. "if we get 10 CPs, we could use
   N weeks instead of 4 weeks"

Adjournment
