Dear all, I won't be available for the usual telcon slot this week. I doubt we will want to meet during (what is for most of us) the holiday season, so the next telcon will be on Wednesday January 5th. This will be at the usual time: 8.00am (PST) / 11.00am EST / 4.00pm (GMT) / 5.00 pm (CET).

I am setting aside some days in January to work on this. If anyone can progress parts of the straw man before then, the rest of us would be very grateful.
