    Greg,<br>
    thanks a lot. Well said. <br>
    I was even thinking of digging out the calls transcripts and the
    email exchanges to show that there was no intent to establish a
    special process or to raise the level of approval, and to confirm
    what we discussed many times: the HR-FOI shall follow the same
    process as WS1 recommendations.<br>
    So I can only say +1 to your well-stated position: the text proposed
    by you does not change the report.<br>
    Best regards<br>

                  worthy goal – but IMO it is better taken up in

                  is done and has been accepted by the COs and it says
                  what it says. We should not “fix” it now – we should
                  ask whether the draft bylaws capture what the proposal
                  says. With Holly’s tweak it is basically verbatim.

                  my concern is that the proposal does leave such room
                  and it is what we presented to the COs for approval.
                  Dealing with interpretation is what implementation and
                  WS2 are basically set up to do. </p>

                                  Hi all,<br>
                                  I certainly understand that there can
                                  be different interpretations of the
                                  intent of the report.
                                  <br>
                                  <br>
                                  The item (ii) of the bylaw in the
                                  report says: "<b>consensus
                                    recommendation in Work Stream 2
                                  </b>(including Chartering
                                  Organizations’ approval)". <br>
                                  <br>
                                  We have even have different thresholds
                                  for consensus in the report itself,
                                  which one is applicable here? What is
                                  the process for reaching this
                                  consensus? The same as for WS1? Then
                                  we might need a reference to WS1 may
                                  be? Furthermore: will everything
                                  developed in the WS2 require a full
                                  consensus and approval of all COs? I
                                  read the chapter in the bylaws about
                                  WS2 and it refers to the process and
                                  charter of WS1. No requirement for
                                  full consensus or approval of the all
                                  the COs there. Why does not HR bylaw
                                  refer to the previous section in the
                                  bylaw that specifically outlines the
                                  requirements for Ws, but introduces
                                  the approval of all COs instead? I
                                  don't mind this, but the clarification
                                  seems to be necessary.
                                  <br>
                                  <br>
                                  Is there already a definition of
                                  consensus for the purpose of the WS2
                                  and if yes, is it the same that has
                                  been introduced for HR FOI in HR bylaw
                                  text?  This is my question.
                                  <br>
                                  <br>
                                  If the answer is "yes" - then there is
                                  no inconsistency. However, I agree
                                  with Niels that this should be
                                  clarified, so we all will be on the
                                  same page.
                                  <br>

                                      I hope this email finds you well.
                                      Upon re-reading the bylaw text I

                                      what we agreed in WS1.<br>
                                      <br>
                                      The CCWG report says where it

                                      <br>
                                      But when I look at the bylaw text
                                      it says:<br>

                                      [proposed bylaw]<br>
                                      <br>
                                      The Core Value set forth in

                                      (ii) each of the

                                      Now it is explicitly required that

                                      approve<br>
                                      the Framework of Interpretation,
                                      whereas during WS1 it was agreed

                                      for WS2 we would use exactly the

                                      WS1.<br>
                                      <br>
                                      What makes this even more

                                      only added<br>

                                      <br>
                                      What I propose is to refer to the

                                      Accountability<br>
                                      for the decision making of all
