Hi All,<br>
I feel like I am sending altogether too many emails today. Sorry
:-)! Anyway, here's one more. I worked with James, a little, and
Susan, more, on streamlining the Proxy recommendations to look,
sound and flow like the Privacy recommendations. Of course, proxy is
voluntary, and privacy is a requirement, but the rest is fairly
close. <br>
<br>
They are below and attached. If you like them, we'll send them on to
Alice for inclusion. Note: the definitions went into a footnote
which should be easy to see as it will be quite extensive.<br>
<br>
here's the text:<br>
