Discussion for Thursday

The recommendations sub-group has developed a new outline that  
reorganizes the existing recommendations and adds one or two others.  
This is still a work in progress, of course, but we felt that this  
"action-oriented" organization is helping us focus on the  
recommendations as logical steps in a process. It also helped us  
reveal some gaps.

We would like to discuss this at the Thursday meeting and see what it  
evokes from the larger group, in particular are there missing  
recommendations, or ones that could be made more clear?

Links to the full text of the sections are available if those help you  
see the whole picture:
