This is a fair suggestion - actually Josh and I talked about this before this was sent out. From what I hear now, seems like the discussions with the RMA group and the I/O folks are going fine, and seems like the open issues with the fault-stabalization proposal should be ironed out very soon. The other 2 proposals will get a first discussion in the WG this week, and then we should have an idea where things stand, and can make an informed decision.

I have been lurking on the FT mailing list and I have observed that we are far from agreement on the form of interface on which we should standardize, let alone how to spell it. While I appreciate the time that you and Josh have put into the RTS proposal, it is clear that we should not adopt it at this time. As a result, I respectfully comment that a reading of the RTS ticket on Monday afternoon is not a productive use of the Forum's time. I think it would be much better to review the new proposals (and perhaps changes to the RTS proposal). Further, since we are already running long for this March meeting, we should reduce the session to a more reasonable two or three hours and not five.

I relaize that you are free to insist on reading the ticket. However, I do not see the benefit of ramming through the reading only to have it almost certainly be defeated when it comes time to vote.
