4.2 Recipients of the review

The list of recipients of the review is tricky to get right. The main
idea is to make sure all the relevant people receive the review. The
recipient list is determined mainly by the following factors

* The timeframe of the review (early vs. late)
* The contents of the review (editorial vs. technical)

Early reviews are usually performed by active participants of a working
group.


Suresh,
      Can you describe  the difference between "early reviews
performed by active participants" and just "participation"?   In my
mind, folks making suggestions and noting issues with a document during
the working group phase are WG contributors, not reviewers.  How do
you see this?

I see it just like you :-). The early reviewers are contributors and 
participants. The reason I made the distinction is because reviews are 
only one form of participation in the working group. There are other 
ways to participate in the working group

* Editing documents
* Keeping track of issues
* Contributing text to sections
etc.

Thanks
Suresh
