As I said, I have no problem with the spirit of this, just wanted to be careful to be clear on where the TAG stands formally on polyglot. I will say that I think a discussion of "other seeming disagreements" is a bit broad. One of the reasons it's important that we meet in person is that there is lots of unscheduled time on breaks and meals for discussion of all manner of things, but for our formal sessions I find it's usually useful to have a bit more specific focus than that. I will schedule a session on (at least) polyglot. If you'd like to broaden it beyond that, or have additional sessions on other topics of possible disagreement, that might be OK too, but it would be helpful to have some guidance on the specifics. That way TAG members can consider the topics in advance, gather pertinent reading material, etc. and we'll have some idea of what success is in the meeting. I will also likely schedule a session, perhaps toward the end of Tues (as Tim is not available Wed) on general issues of TAG effectiveness and organization. I'd like to do that after we've had some time to try to work together F2F. That all sound OK? Thank you. Noah
