I think the purpose of the two committees has been cleared up for me,  
however the names of the committees does seem a bit inaccurate given  
the following purposes:

The Requirements Subcommittee will be drafting the specifications.
The CF Blue Drafting Subcommittee will be reviewing the deliverables of  
the Requirements Subcommittee.

Is it too late to change names?
