Re: Notes from May 2nd VI

Thank you for doing these minutes for the call. Two small extra things from the call that I think are important.

I think the notes are missing one key item which is that only on the call when we asked who had recently reviewed the whole document, we got one person.

Also it was noted on the call that we do not have a clear idea of what are our exit criteria to exit CR.
