I would suggest acouple of changes to Ross'
proposal:
a) the 1/15 date should slide to allow for more time for
analysis. This is the key task for us and should not be
rushed. I'd rather see us compress the final review.
b) analysis of the feasibility of the implementation
should include comparison to - and consideration of - alternative or
additional transfer proposals such as that proposed by the VGRS registry
as an efficient tool for the committee to utilize.

Subject: [nc-imptransfer] Proposed Charter Documents
Bruce/All,
I would like to request that we include a discussion of
this charter
proposal on tomorrow's agenda. I'm
sure that all of you would agree that
that in
order to meet the objectives that have been set forth by the NC
for this group, we will need to have a clear
understanding of what it is
we have been tasked to
do and when we need to go it by. As this is our
first call, I'm not sure if someone else has been tasked by our
interim
Chair to come up with a similar proposal
or not, so in the absence of
information to the
contrary, I offer the following contribution.
It would be my intention to agree upon this, or revised
text, during
tomorrows call in order that we can
proceed with our work quickly and
effectively.
Note that with the exception of the mandate, all of these
items are up for grabs and purely intended to act as a focal point
for
our discussion. If it needs to change, then we
should change it as a
group ;)
Please do not hesitate to drop me a note if you have any
questions or
require clarification on this
proposal.
