WSN Policy initial allocations

[Matthew I Roberts <matt.roberts@uk.ibm.com>]

For action of;
  Rick Cobb
  Matt Roberts
  Martin Chapman
  David Hull
  William Vambenepe
  Lily Liu

Following on from the conference call on 20th December '05 I took an action
item to make an initial allocation of people to the skeleton WSN Policy
document contents based on the ordered list voting from the face to face
last year.

I dug into the first six items on the list and allocated them as shown
below based on who looked at the idea the last time around.

For your allocated item, please formulate a description of the policy
option using the basic headings template described in 3.1 of [2]. I am
happy to receive recommendations for changes to the template if you think
it appropriate.

We will have a review of these items on the first call back in the New Year
(16th January).
Thanks in advance, and seasons greetings!

Matt
