Can I ask why "spanning the dot" is to be referred to the full WG according to this document despite apparent agreement that it's a proposal that was previously considered and no new information has been provided? That doesn't seem consistent with the principles announced.

We hope this document can help Sub Group A present the outcome of its work for review/consideration by the full WG. Please see the document here with a brief introduction below: https://docs.google.com/document/d/10mftuhNy7YMgtCIu2ZRwsCleDgbP8AAAFz_jMHBFL70/edit?usp=sharing<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__docs.google.com_document_d_10mftuhNy7YMgtCIu2ZRwsCleDgbP8AAAFz-5FjMHBFL70_edit-3Fusp-3Dsharing&d=DwMGaQ&c=WO-RGvefibhHBZq3fL85hQ&r=E-M4OQvQBo8UWqE1LwEiDR3PcWlfM0I-0jiI1c4ous0&m=82SUj4_pX0vh7HfRwvI4j0zPdRkzN_uUITr6jaG9NRg&s=rbjtIm6V7Ekzk3u5Gjrr0w4eOGZ5yaJzQMp8HnmS1Xc&e=> * This document is not meant to replace Sub Group A’s transcripts/recordings/chat records, which include the full details of each meeting; * In general, we hope this document can be continuously used by the full WG after Sub Group A’s deliberation is completed; * Each recommendation/question title/number is linked to the wiki page that contains the contextual language; * Under each recommendation/question, there are three sub sections: * Public Comment Referred to WG: It contains the public comments the Sub Group A decides to flag to the WG for further deliberation; link to the public comment review tool (PCRT) and corresponding row number(s) are included here; * Public Comment Deliberation Summary: It includes two sub sections – 1) Sub Group A Deliberation Summary & 2) WG Deliberation Summary; * Under “Sub Group A Deliberation Summary”, it Includes a high-level summary of the Sub Group’s response/action related to the public comments, particularly the flagged public comments that will be referred to the full WG; * Under “WG Deliberation Summary”, the content is TBD and will be populated after the WG has reviewed the flagged public comments (if any) and the Sub Group’s deliberation summary; staff expect that content under this sub section will be included in the Final Report (as part of the context/deliberation); * Proposed Final Recommendation Language: * The final recommendation language confirmed by the full WG will be populated here; * If Sub Group A agrees on any edits/revisions to the recommendations, the proposed language will be included here for the full WG to review/consider; * The highlighted text (“[not completed]”) indicates that the Sub Group A’s deliberations on certain recommendation/question are not completed. The update of this document will be ongoing -- staff aim to update this document shortly after each meeting finishes and circulate it for Sub Group members’ review. You are welcome to provide input/feedback and point out any error/mischaracterization/missing content on list. To facilitate your review, staff can provide a brief presentation on this document during next week’s call. Thank you for your time and review. Best Regards, Mary, Julie, Ariel
