<div>Dear DG Members,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>As discussed on today’s group call, staff is circulating the
updated Issues / Recommendations matrix that was last edited by
Jeff Neuman, along with his short explanation regarding the
proposed groupings he included in the document (see below). I
have also included his updated Executive Summary. As noted by
Jeff on the call, the co-chairs request feedback by <b>30 Mar
2015</b> and preferably before, so as to be able to include
for discussion during the DG call on 30 Mar 2015 at 14:00 UTC.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Note, I have incorporated Philip Shepard’s proposed changes
into tab 2 of the attached Excel sheet.</div>
