> I am rephrasing my shepherds comments. The report was filed last night, one week in advance of the monthly meeting as per the Board's stated deadline. In order to avert a messy post-deadline debate about exactly what should language should go into the report, I have made an executive call as IPMC Chair and amended the Board meeting agenda, removing all shepherd notes for Drill -- including both the original comments and the responses from Drill Mentors. If we decide that something about the matter would benefit from Board attention, we can mention it next month. People should not take this action as a precedent and expect that filed reports will be amended in the future. Generally speaking, if it's happening at the last minute, it can wait until next month's report. Thanks to Dave for his long record of contributing as a shepherd.
