[wg-review] Bounced Message from Jon, Former WG C Chair

["YJ Park" <yjpark@myepark.com>]

Elisabeth,

Jon is Review WG member and he seems to have continuous
problem to send his email to this list together with some members.

Is there any technical reason here?
Thank you Elisabeth for your help in advance,
YJ

Subject: Re: [wg-review] Review WG's Path from Dec. 19 - Jan 15

         I suspect that the *only* issue on which we can reach agreement in
the short term is that this WG cannot begin to complete its assigned task
by January 15.  The notion that we could come up with consensus agreement
on each of the points in a full-scale recommendation paper responsive to
the task force's questionnaire, in the holiday-laden 19 days remaining to
us, is far-fetched in the extreme.  Accordingly, it seems to me that the
Chair should return to the NC explaining this reality (as I believe she's
already suggested), and requesting an realistic date.

         Once we have a realistic date in front of us for completing work
(i.e., with respect to each of the questions put to us, either [1] reaching
consensus or [2] determining that we can't reach consensus, and instead
summarizing the competing positions and the arguments in support of each),
then it would make sense to establish a workplan, with intermediate
deadlines, so that we have a shot at actually finishing our work by the
date set.  (I'm trying to learn from my mistakes in WG-C, so that we do the
things Javier and I didn't do, but should have . . . )

         If the NC won't give us a realistic deadline, we might as well
fold our tents now.

Jon
