1: it might be possible to shorten the paper by removing some techinical
details. The group position
paper does not need to demonstrate that the group knows its stuff.

2: mention RBC/mintchip as a possible design partner: Bitcoins are scary,
Canadian dollars less so.

3: possibly talk up "healthy coopetition" unless that neologism isn't fun
any more
