[arg_discuss] White Paper - 2010 Edition

[D. Cook]

Brooke, do you have any sort of unifying style sheet for section authors?  I think that would be a great help to keep the white paper on track and consistent.  Perhaps suggestions as to length, scope, time period covered, and so on would help, and prevent some of the problems that the last white paper ran into.

A couple of folks have offered to help me edit it (I'll be in touch!), so now we need some authors to step up and help us make this thing a reality. I posted this on my blog, as well as to the list, so feel free to spread the word to any & all that might be interested in writing a section. And, if you've got an idea for a section you'd like to write that's not already included, mention it and we might be able to make it happen.
