If there are things that could be dropped (or postponed) without 
affecting the whole, please indicate them.

The dependencies are mostly on the sequence of handling individual 
items, which should not prevent other things from being dealt with.

Very true.  The main purpose of the bimonthly telcon is to track the 
status of the various work items, which naturally means that there is a 
lot.  Maybe we should schedule addtional topical meetings that take care 
of specific issues?  We won't get more time out of a day, but maybe this 
makes the handling more efficient?

All the best,

Christian
