[Nsi-wg] Call Wed and revised strawman

[John Vollbrecht]

We will have a call Wed at 9ET -  call information

Call: +1-734-615-7474 (PSTN CALL-OUT DOES NOT WORK) or +1-866-411-0013  
(toll free US/Canada Only)
Enter access code: 0155180

I attach an updated version of the strawman.  It includes a number of  
changes - I suggest that  if you are looking at it fresh you turn off  
showing changes --  I actually tried to turn it off without accepting  
changes but when I tried to send it that way it always turned tracking  
back on.  Maybe there's a way -----

I would like to discuss the strawman on Wed.  The section under Job  
Control is basically what Sebastien sent - I would like to discuss  
that, and then perhaps the section on reservation that Guy  is working  
on or the naming section.  If you have suggestions please let me  
know.  I believe that Guy will not be able to make the call Wed.

Guy is setting up meetings at Chapel hill.  We can talk about that.   
We hope to have at least one joint meeting with the NML group and to  
have a session where we invite other groups in to explain what we are  
trying to do and how we think other groups will fit.  We could try to  
identify the appropriate groups.

Anyone working on mods for the document are encouraged to submit them  
in a strawman form asap.

We should review who will be contributors - notes from minutes a few  
weeks ago --
