Hi David, Gregg V, Greg L, Jim, Josh, Andrew, and all, David, thank you for your email and clarification. We missed you at yesterday's meeting. I agree that Greg L's proposal (J&K) isn't testable. It gets us back to where we first started. I had asked him to edit his J&K section of the Wiki page. Greg, if you can make your proposal testable, I will ask that it be added to next Tuesday's survey. If not, I don't think there is much point as it doesn't meet minimum SC requirements. Gregg V, the "If the technologies being used can achieve" language was taken directly from 1.4.5. But we can go back to the language in Proposal C and simply remove the words "at least" which some people found confusing. So I have now added Proposal L&M to the Wiki page [1]. Josh and Andrew, can the L&M proposal please be added to next week's survey with the simple question asking if anyone can not live with it? Thanks everyone.
