While I agree that a must would imply that the document have some form 
or requirements status, referrals are of such a strong demand from 
applications that I think this needs to be addressed one way or the 
other. But at the interim meeting we already said that we would try and 
cover applications requirements in some way. So I agree with Iljitsch 
but I do think that the question should be in the document. Perhaps we 
could also come up with some more sub-questions for this point for 
helping describing exactly how referrals would work.
