[Project-managers] Request the meeting be re-scheduled

[Robin Lougee-Heimer]

Dear TLC:

There's a  lot of history on this topic and it would be more productive to 
have ALL the perspectives from the start. 
When the SLB didn't have all perspective from the start on a related 
topic, it ended up reversing itself.   Terrible waste of time. 
Ditto for the TLC on handling cut-generator submissions. 

This is related to both of the 2 "reversal" cases I mentioned, which all 
involved Legal. 

Seems to me that there's more than enough rationale to postpone the 
discussion of this non-urgent issue.   Hope you can.

Robin

[Project-managers] TLC Telecon Tomorrow 1:00 PM EST)






Robin,

Perhaps my e-mail was a bit misleading. Let me clarify. The scheduled 
discussion is just the first step in a process that will provide ample 
opportunity for comment by non-TLC members. The revisions made so far 
reflect changes that have already been adopted by either the TLC or the 
SLB and so should not require extensive review. If more substantial 
changes are proposed during the TLC's discussion, more time will have to 
be allowed. In any case, since both documents contain legal language, 
the outcome of this exercise will be draft documents that will be 
forwarded to the SLB before they are finalized. The "vote" by the TLC 
will only be an endorsement of these drafts. The final approval will 
rest with the SLB. There will therefore be plenty of chances for review 
before anything is set in stone.

Cheers,

Ted
