[Ws2-jurisdiction] CONSENSUS CALL ON NOTE 4.1 TEXTS: Almost Final Draft Report for Review before Submission to Plenary on 2 March

I note some support for "no change" and as that's already well established
language I can certainly live with that outcome...

Please note, I had left the call just before ending to join another call,
so wasn't actually present at the moment of any discussion, of the
alternative to the middle ground of "Option 1" from earlier in the call
but  (still a good fall back as well in my view) so my response was
specifically to Greg's urgent Concensus Call, to the list, based on the
background provided in that email.
