What would you suggest, as co-chair of the group, that the Board needs to know 
right now, apart from the status of the report (which is the object of the 
email I will send tomorrow and which we have been working on for the past few 
days)? Do you think the Board should be asking questions on the report itself, 
even though it hasn't been approved yet?
