I have retitled and reordered our recommendations:

• Make R&S support a requirement in Baseline Expectations

• InCommon should build a bigger tent

• Add more researchers to Internet2 and InCommon governance bodies

• Engage grant funding agencies

• InCommon IdP as a service

• InCommon needs to better support Service Providers

• Improve R&S documentation for IdPs and SPs

• Rebrand InCommon’s R&S efforts

• InCommon should remove the legacy “InCommon-only” R&S Category

These changes were made in both the executive summary and body of report. In the executive summary, I also changed the wording around order and priority.

I incorporated the changes from the community suggestions and responded on the wiki page.

Finally, I added a couple of sentences obliquely referring to Globus' distancing itself from relying on  R&S because of lack of IdP participation at the end of the executive summary section.

Let me know if I've missed something or if there's language (i.e. titles) that we can further tighten up.
