Joop and all,
What distractions, and distractions from what exactly are you
referring to for a list based WG, Joop?
[RAA] is in the subject line, and this is also what Dr. Dierker had
already suggested.
CC'ing is not a bad thing depending on if whom is being CC'ed is
a list member or not. If not CC'ing is for informational purposes
and is beneficial as such. Otherwise CC'ing is overly redundant.

Eric,
I agree with Chris. We can report weekly or fortnightly to the list,
but in
order to get work done, we need to be free from distractions and
possible
trolling.
As long as we have to operate by cc-ing, I would like to ask WG
participants to put [RAA] in the subject line.
