Open issues - REL

I understood that REL was something whose values were defined as part of 
some 'official' process. Which is not to say that we shouldn't be looking 
at it, because Jon's idea makes very good sense, but more that there may 
be other groups who we should also be talking to (HC?). Of course I could 
be way off track here.
