Subject: [Rfced-future] A brief reminder- please bring issue conversations to the mailing list

Dear colleagues,

As you all know, this group is trying to forge a consensus from many different perspectives.  To facilitate that the chairs would like to remind you that comments about issues should be made on list, and not in the issue tracker.  There is a procedural reason for this– we haven’t agreed to use the tracker for discussions – and there is a substantive issue: if it seems you are finding common ground in the tracker, you may be sadly disappointed when the issue is raised on the list.  And that in turn may set the effort back.

Thank you.  We now return you to your regularly scheduled Wednesday/Thursday.

Eliot
