If, as chair, I judge that we are unable to reach a consensus on one or more issues, 
then I will take appropriate action, which will probably entail us requesting that Jimbo 
step in. However, I would view an *uninvited* intervention by Jimbo as unwelcome 
interference, and I do not believe it would prove productive.

I have no idea what "soon enough" might mean. We will be ready when we are 
ready. We have eight agenda items to get through, and as we work through you'll all 
be able to see how fast we are progressing, and can form your own estimates as to 
when we'll be finished. By the way, we're all human. A little support and 
encouragement from time to time goes a long way.
