<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:8.0pt;font-family:"Comic Sans MS"">I wonder, what do you think the reception might be from other committees with regard to chopping up the incubation checklist into relevant items (related to each committee). This
spreads the load, as well as introducing an expectancy to having the items checked off in the list. These committee checkoffs could be added as additional grouped items. They could be worked potentially in parallel to each other, but I think working them
in some sort of sequence might be better overall since it will tend to add a level of urgency to see a project through a particular step of the checklist items. As a few projects progress through incubation, any bottlenecks can be addressed as needed related
to overburdening any one committee. Are there enough questions for each committee to feel like they are managing something meaningful?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:8.0pt;font-family:"Comic Sans MS""><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:8.0pt;font-family:"Comic Sans MS"">This bring to mind another thought related to the existing incubation process, trying to figure out what things have been checked off etc, for each step. There are too many undocumented
locations for the checked off items to chased down currently. Seems like I needed to start over (almost) each time I tried to figure out what was done and what wasn’t..<o:p></o:p></span></p>
