The document has been discussed during the call, and at the moment there 
is no result yet. There are currently two positions within the PGI WG, 
one arguing that the best way to address the requirements is to write a 
new specification (taking the useful bits and pieces from 
BES/JSDL/whatever), and the other arguing that everything can be 
accomplished from existing specifications/profiles, plus additional 
profiling.

No consensus has emerged so far on which is the direction to go. 
Apparently it is possible to achieve the requirements with both 
approaches, but this alone is not enough to suggest one of them over the 
other.

As far as Andrew's document is concerned, I had a couple of comments but 
before making them I am skimming through the specs and profiles 
referenced therein so that I have a better understanding.

Moreno.
