I wonder if it would worthwhile as a lead up to NCL's policy call in November for groups to share with each other what they consider their most urgent concerns/issues as they draft their comments, and then see if there is some consensus around some of them during our call. It would be more powerful if we echoed those consensus items (if any) in each group’s individual comments. And, in addition, NCL could summarize those in its own submission (which I’d be happy to write up).

I wonder if it would worthwhile as a lead up to NCL's policy call in November for groups to share with each other what they consider their most urgent concerns/issues as they draft their comments, and then see if there is some consensus around some of them during our call. It would be more powerful if we echoed those consensus items (if any) in each group’s individual comments. And, in addition, NCL could summarize those in its own submission (which I’d be happy to write up).

Yes – CLASP will be calling out what’s good about these, what’s missing from the previous list of priorities, and cautions in implementation.
