Are we going to have a technical problem statement between now and

My recollection of the last one was that it was focused on a business
model, rather than being more technical in nature? I don't think we
need
one for RRG, I think, but it might be useful (?).
I take it that you're referring to the RADIR problem statement. No,
we are currently not planning any additional enhancements to that.
The design goals document captures some technical issues that we deem
worthy of discussion. If that seems insufficient, we're certainly
open to proposals. Let's discuss before you start writing, however.
I should remind folks that our 'problem' is a matter of research, not
engineering. Drawing a hard line about the problem (which I would
deem absolutely necessary for an engineering effort) is not
necessarily the best approach for research. Or, as my advisor used
to put it: the goal of a master's student is to solve hard problems.
The goal of a researcher is to ask the right questions.
