No need to get worked up. We are all trying to solve the same problems and we are on the same team.

Hi Steve (& Karim),
I apologize if I've been combative. I would like us to end up with a product we are all proud of that encourages innovation and sharing in the field, and I worry about pushing through a v1 'just to have something' will leave us in a position we regret in the not-too-distant future. There are a lot of strong feelings & personalities in the room, and its hard not to get worked up, but I will try harder.
yours,
Bobby

email is a fine place to communicate ideas and issues. You are a bit combative about your issues but I like email as a communication medium and think more communication is always better than less.

I understand they were carried over from the pre-OASIS draft, but
there was not much discussion of the details of the macro
specification in this TC in the meetings I attended, and I haven't
seen mention of them in the meeting notes of meetings I've missed. I
certainly could have missed something, tho! Please point me at any
meeting notes I missed, thanks.

There are 5 active members of the TC that are technically-minded that
I am aware of (you, me, Billy, Will, Bob), and the majority of them
have been engaging with my emails. I disagree with you here - I think
the official, public TC email list is a perfectly valid place for me
to raise concerns, and it is disconcerting to me that you are
discouraging public discussion.
I will certainly reiterate my concerns at the meeting on Friday, but I
don't understand why you think I should keep them private until then.
yours,
Bobby
