[Pgi-wg] PGI Use Case Document: FINAL CALL for Group Comments

[Morris Riedel]

Dear Etienne, all,

  we took them offline and discussed them just on the phone and the outcome was basically that we address them in the second iteration of the use case document after version 1 is published.

Thanks for your comments,
Morris
