Indeed. We may even want to use a "breadth before depth" process here- something like "cut and continue" on a critical item subset, so we defer the complex issue discussion to offline emails. This way, we move forward more predictably (perhaps). I think Charlie often does this informally, but maybe its time to formalize the process just a bit further. Also, in retrospect, I should have introduced my topic by email beforehand to seed our thinking about it- not that it would necessarily have shortened our need for discussion, but perhaps it could be at a higher level or more efficient in the meeting context. -CB -----Original Message----- From: Jim Vellenga Sent: Wednesday, January 31, 2007 4:55 PM To: Chuck Berking; sv-cc@eda-stds.org Subject: RE: [sv-cc] Minor correction to vpiParent_std.pdf proposal for Mantis #1684 Actually, I'm wondering if we should in general do continuing business before new business. New business is tending to take up whole meetings and to prevent us from finishing things up. A lot of other organizations I've been part of do put "Old Business" ahead of "New Business," probably for just this reason.
