Hi,

Will add my +2 to this as well. I must confess it's been quite a 100m race
and catching up has been quite challenging as we all have varying access to
resources that would ensure participation. I commend all those who have
been on this work in "absolute" voluntary status.

As the second report gets released, it is my hope that there will be
summary version that highlights the key changes proposed (referencing their
respective sections in the main report)

Finally, will be good to know the methodology that would be applied in
reviewing the comments from PC.

Regards
