Good Afternoon Measures Team!

Hope everyone is doing well.  Well, this is it... crunch time!  This is the week that we get recommendations in to Hope Street Group.  First, we'd like to thank Sherman VERY much for the recommendations posted.  I have been out of town at a family reunion with very sporadic internet service and was unable to get feedback through (don't ever under-appreciate hot water or internet on demand).  Thanks so much for your work on that!  HSG said not to worry about breaking apart- just leave as is.  For the rest of us please post feedback about Sherman's draft and help fill in the portions of the template where he asked for additional references.  You can add as a separate blog or download the document and paste in additions and then repost for the group to continue working on.

We will be posting some additional ROUGH drafts of recommendations today and tomorrow.  These are general/umbrella recommendations based on the discussions held by the team and the research presented.  PLEASE post feedback and add to the documents attached and then repost them.  We want to be inclusive of everyone's view points and reflect all of the reading and research that's been done up to this point.  We need full team participation in order to meet the deadline and get these recommendations completed and in to HSG over the next week.  Thanks so much for your efforts on this... we are in the home stretch!

As always please don't hesitate to call or email if you have any questions, concerns, or comments.  We are looking forward to viewing your input and seeing these recommendations move from draft versions to actual versions!

Thanks- Darcy and Dina
