A summary was sent around privately after the teleconference, but we
have been requested not to repost it.  Anyway, my notes of the
teleconference include a lot of catch-phrases like "holistic dialogue",
"all-encompassing", "general debate", "range of ideas"... as opposed to
the much more focused agenda for our workshop.  I'm not sure how much
more I can say about their motivations or perspectives, but it is not
difficult to speculate.
