I do too.  I think India's proposal's good.  And 
if there hasn't been progress with the CSTD then 
I'm sure it can be reviewed/championed in the 
taking stock/way forward session.

There is one issue in India's proposal I think 
could be looked at: Enhanced Cooperation.  Says 
it's important, should be operationalized, etc. 
But it doesn't define it.  A workshop "Defining 
Enhanced Cooperation" might be useful.  I'm 
certainly not clear what it means.
