Looks good; I might say s/state/document/

Also good and wise.

I suspect we should talk about that. RSSAC does publish documents that are
not always advice for the board to act on, as does SSAC I think. But your
point is valid that we need to be careful about how we word things to be
clear about who the audience is.
