The synopsis was added today and intended to be helpful. Somehow the

I will fix that asap. (thanks for spotting that!).

None of the 'synopsis' items are meant to be the text of the proposals.

No indeed. I did say that this was not complete.  There is a proposal which 
will be up very soon.  I acknowledge that it is unfortunately late ..

This agenda item is simply a review of existing processes, so the best
documentation is a link to the existing process documentation imho. It is
a proposal only in the sense that it is a review of things as they stand
now - the proposal actually has to come from the community if changes are
to be made. btw The slides will also be ready Monday.

Anne
