Brian - since we discussed this MANY moons ago, you are right on that much has changed. we never really got much traction, and I am wondering if the project is OBE(overcome by events), in that much of our original charter is now being done elsewhere. while the goals are good, we may simply need to identify how we can deliver on a tactical plan things of value. I would certainly be interested in continuing the effort, if we can identify a tactical plan, so in that vain I would like to suggest an brainstorming session in the near future to identify some short-term goals..
