Notes on comment database• TGn is using a new comment database management

tool• Ad hoc chairs will use the tool to process comments

– Tool window on screen will look similar to spreadsheet– Comments still referenced by CID

• Excel spreadsheets will be created and distributed as before– Containing comment group sheets– Same resolution status designations

• Exception – “D” no longer used – see ad hoc-status column where defer is indicated
