<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">These are fair points, Greg, but in my opinion seven would be plenty, and like courts around the world the panelists can handle more than one “case” at a time.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">I also worry that the larger the panel the more inclination there might be to stray and find important work to do that the community did not give to the panel.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif"">I continue to think that a "standing panel" of 7 is too small (and reducing to 5 goes in the wrong direction). I'm not sure how many "sitting panels" there will be simultaneously, or how
many "sitting panels" we expect a panelist to sit on simultaneously. Panelists may not have the bandwidth to take on more than one sitting panel at a time. If that's the case, there can be no more than 2 proceedings at any given time (and the choices for
the second panel are obviously limited), unless we reach into the standby pool. I would think a panel of at least 9 standing panelists would be better (so we can have 3 proceedings at any given time without necessarily going into the standby pool).<u></u><u></u></span></p>

not comfortable assuming either.<u></u><u></u></span></p>
