Re: Prospective Progress Report: A paper with no name, but still

Thanks Matt!

We'll discuss it formally in SG14, I think, as you suggested. You might
remember from previous meetings that there's a 40+ pages working document
that collects a lot of info on the various requests, and I deliberately did
not go in detail in the Progress Report document (I hope to forward the
information gathered so far in the individual papers to come to give the
authors -- myself included -- a start).

There has been a preliminary «culling down» in SG14 already but I'm sure we
could do more. Some of it is implicit as similar efforts end up making
progress on other fronts (you mention Zach, there's also Corentin who's
made progress recently on some of these topics independently of SG14, David
Stone too). We'll gather as much info as we can in the next meeting (Guy
suggested Wednesday... Michael, what do you think?) to polish the progress
report further.

Cheers!
