  Absolutes are so confining and usually not realistic.  Short term goals
must be reached if order for long term goals to have a chance...

  Do you mean "Goals" here?

  Yes indeed!  Some committees or Working Groups, should be standing.
Others are not needed to be standing.  It depends really on the tasks,
and goals that each committee/Working Group is or has set forth to
actually achieve.

  These are the tasks of the Panel members as that is what they were
elected to accomplish.  Hence it would seem still reasonable for the
Panel members to work hard, together and get this completed.

  We will also need a finance committee as well as one for funding.
But your on the right track here Eric.  Remember though as Bruce
properly pointed out we must do these as with all tasks, open, aboveboard,
and transparent.  Nothing less will suffice...
