[DDI-SRG] Upcoming Agendas and Bug Status Update

[Wendy Thomas]

This is an update of where we stand in regard to filed bugs. The first set 
is the geography that Arofan is working on today. The second set are 
outstanding items that will be on upcoming agendas. Note that I would VERY 
MUCH like to get the short items out of the way. There are a number of 
previously discussed and approved items that still need to be entered. 
Four short items and five medium sized items that will probably require 
some discussion. I'll send out more information on these later today. 
Finally there are the big items roughly in the order I'd like them to get 
discussed. All of this needs to be completed in the next few weeks. Arofan 
is not available Feb 28. If we can get any of the short or medium items 
out of the way via email that would be great.
