Hello; Christopher and I would like to provide an update on the PEMC work. 1. Christopher, Hannah, and I are working through the Implementor’s Guidance document and anticipate sharing a vote-ready version next week. This has been pushed back because of a medical issue that I experienced, but am working back from. Some critical points to remember when we circulate the draft for workgroup approval: a. I generally take the view that this kind of group work is ready to move forward when everyone is equally unhappy with the results (that’s one way to look at the results of consensus and compromise) b. This is not a normative report. It is preliminary guidance that roughly represents a consensus view of the group. c. I view this as V1 of the report and anticipate it will be updated after completing the first draft recommendations. 2. We are moving to a bi-weekly cadence for the PEMC calls to facilitate offline and asynchronous work. This is because the weekly meetings appear (to me) to have become the place where we discuss but do not quickly resolve the text that we are creating. We have created the Google Sheet shared with you to brainstorm and create the requirements YOU think should be included in the recommendations. The biweekly meetings will focus on issues that can not be resolved asynchronously or on votes on recommendations. More on the form and format of the published recommendations will be forthcoming once the workgroup feels it is closing in on a reasonably complete set of V1 recommendations. Next steps A: Workgroup vote on the Implementors report by email once. We anticipate getting the candidate draft out next week. B: Populate the requirements on Google Sheets. Getting your input as soon as possible is critical. I believe that the recommendations we are working on will be both unique and uniquely useful to stakeholders that want to be able to provide real assurances about their protection of personal data. This is your homework, and it is a brainstorming exercise, so the more, the better. Next Zoom Call: Wednesday, Nov. 1 at 1:00 PM Eastern.
