I think it would be helpful to have an "editor" to consistently resolve
these issues without having to get a consensus of the ITLT.
My thinking on the two issues:
1. Holding ITLT accountable. It was my feeling that we were trying to assign
primary or direct responsibility. In 3-A01 we identified three (now four)
team leaders who were responsible for the work involved. I feel that the
corresponding directors are accountable for the work of those team leaders.
Thus, I do not feel it adds anything and might dilute the concept of
accountability to add "DB/WFH/RAR" to the ITLT accountability. We need to be
consistent. If we are going to add the corresponding ITLT members here, we
should do it in the other initiatives.
2. 3-A02. Although Resnet is not mentioned, I assumed it under MITnet along
with Tether and other MITnet services. Should we err on the side of being
more verbose? I can easily go either way.
