        <div>Briefly:</div>
        <div>I. It's a formal point, but they should make certain edits
          when referencing the Bylaws. In the quote here "process" is
          used several times but references two different matters (the
          overall process of constituting a panel and the process of
          choosing the people who will choose the panelists)</div>
        <div>III. I think the 1st one is fine. </div>
        <div>III.D. the group should determine its own chair. That way
          the chair will be more legitimate. See below...</div>
        <div>IV.A. recorded and transcribed yes, then released when
          appropriate, so maybe after the panel decision? </div>
        <div>IV.B. Consensus yes, also yes to chair designation, and no
          minority statement as I don't think there should be a report
          for a panel constitution. This is not a policy discussion. Of
          course it's highly political and potentially contentious, much
          like policy, and adjudicatory processes do have minority
          statements in many "legal cultures," and they serve a useful
          purpose. But in these cases the authority of the adjudicatory
          process is strongly entrenched (think a supreme court). The
          authority of an IRP panel decision, judging by previous ones,
          is, let's say, modest... To the extent that panelists are
          better chosen than before (that is, more representative of the
          community) I think it's fair to insulate them a little bit
          now. But that's an important matter, and I understand others
          may disagree. </div>
