Effective conflict resolution

• Most conflicts are a result of valid concerns
  that were not addressed
• During Meetings
• After limited discussion take the concerns
  offline and work together
• When needed develop a joint resolution offline
  and bring to WG or to reflector as resolved or as
  a clearly defined disagreement
• On the reflector
• After a round of email responses get on the phone
  or send a private email to interest group and
  work together to develop a joint resolution. Post
  that joint resolution to get additional input.
