Hi Bruce: 

Just wanted to flag these issues for consideration in the council's discussion today.  There hasn't been any feedback on the list, so I wouldn't necessarily characterize them as task force positions yet, but at the very least it's some feedback from the TF chair.  It would be difficult to know how to handle some of our existing work items without some explicit feedback from the Council.

	As we discussed yesterday, I've drafted some comments from the TF to the council to consider in deciding on new terms of reference. Hopefully these are fairly un-controversial.  Please let me know if you have any feedback:

	(1) The task force requests that the council clearly specify whether the terms of reference are considered to be a new set of terms of reference or merely modifications to the existing terms of reference.  The task force also requests that the council specify whether the intent is to apply the terms of reference to a new task force, or is rechartering the existing task force.

	(2) The task force requests that the council clearly indicate whether policy development should continue in each of the areas in which the task force currently has work items.  In the event that the council directs the task force not to continue to develop policy in one or more areas, we request that the council make appropriate provisions to conclude work and make necessary factual reports to council.

	The third area we discussed, incorporating a reference to the transfers task force definition of contact roles, has already been incorporated in Bruce's latest draft.

	Jordyn
