Well, I think that we should have a deadline for the first draft with text, so that there is enough time after it to explain the things that weren't clear in the first draft.
I.e., I want to have time to *polish*. > And the time should be flexible: > how about "We shall *seriously consider* whether we can make it".I think having the other policy more flexible would be less of a problem than having this one more flexible-- I don't want to 'seriously consider' and then get into deadline panic again =)
