Thanks a lot for the excellent idea if adding a summary of the available feedbacks received in this PRI (it would be helpful to use this in fact for all existing and future PRI). It will certainly help focusing each discussion by type, grouping people submitting similar comments so that they also find some form of agreement between each other. It wuold also reduce the administrative work, allowing people to reference the comments made by others instead of repeating things, or allowing them to compare the various feedbacks if they can't be accepted all together (when a choice has to be made). (When I just start reading the L2 archives, only for 2011 for now, it imme- diately reveals me the complex task of sorting all the feedbacks received, or the lack of feedback on some critical subjects, and not sorting them inflates a lot the number of items to schedule in a meeting agenda, so much that they may not be studied and discussed with the time each of the proposals submitted would merit, or some items will be discussed several times, possibly forgetting some items studied in past meetings, and where some decisions could be further delayed after some more investigation time). And it paves the way for defining the meeting agendas in UTC (sorting rapidly thingsthat should be corrected early if they are blocking other items to be scheduled later: it allows a development of the standard with more precise milestones that are easier to complete without creating problems for the next milestones). -- Philippe.
