If these are the "hot" topics I can only wonder what the cold ones are. Has there been no discussion of the equal status of participants, of the procedures by which working groups will be formed, or whether there will indeed be a working group structure? Was there any discussion of agenda topics?

Agree with Lee M. that this is an insider fight with little consequence to CS; other than opposing alternatives that would make it difficult or hostile to us we should not get involved.

The difference is....nominal. Of course program committee is better in case someone gets drunken with the "power" of "steering" but this is not a very important issue either.
