Ann,

I'm surprised. This was quite an inocuous messages and was provided as
nothing more than an aid to looking at a schedule. What's bothering you
about it?

Rachel

While I appreciate the initiative that you have taken in compiling these
charts,
as the project team lead, and the sensitivity surrounding the project
activity,
I would like to review any information that is disseminated regarding
schedules.
There are quite a few things that I have taken exception to in this
communication, which I will discuss when we have our first meeting on the
20th.

Thanks
ann

Folks,

Before setting out for a day of sight-seeing at Tokyo following this week's
meeting I spent a few minutes playing around with the calendar to determine
just how many review cycles could be squeezed in between now and Vienna. The
results of this are in the attached Powerpoint file.

I made a couple of new assumptions: 1) the # of days allotted to ExC review
was reduced to 5; 2) the # of days allotted to editing and integration of
quality and public review comments was reduced to 10.

While this resulted in an extremely aggressive schedule, it does indicate
that some specifications could achieve a V2.0 status if the project team
wished to accomplish that objective.

I trust this "generic" schedule will help you in taking a look at and
possibly re-working your respective team's detailed planning schedule.

Rachel
