Robby

The more I think about the taking away offer paradigm and that you will be engaging other folks before we do so with CB, the more strongly I feel that you should raise this with HRC now.  It gives her a chance to say thumbs up or down, and you (or me if it ends up being me) the chance to address situation with CB directly and with grace now re shifted expectations. He is an adult and will appreciate it. 

Same on Jake, as I know she has been pretty definite about her thoughts on him and she is used to his Hamlet approach to deciding whether to take roles (it took me 3 months to recruit him in 2008/09). So if he is prepared to do the full monty, and we offer him a path that is less that he takes but that is inconsistent with what she would want if he would do the full monty, same issue.
