full-page view.&nbsp; &nbsp;If we decide to use this Appendix, I will clean it

<p class=MsoNormal>Dear Working Group,<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>I attempted to clean up the figures in chapter 6 of the AMS
Green Book (chapter 6 covers Remote AMS), but ran into problems.
&nbsp;&nbsp;The original figures were moved in-line with the text (which is
good) but were reduced in size, and locations of some of the arrows in the
figures were changed.&nbsp; In my opinion, the figures are no longer intuitive
(which was the main purpose of using figures).&nbsp; Anyway, after
unsuccessfully trying to clean up the figures, I gave up and talked with Scott
Burleigh.&nbsp; We decided to push for restoring the full-sized figures and
putting them in a section dedicated to figures (perhaps an appendix or the
beginning of chapter 6 or the end of chapter 6).<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>(The unsuccessful attempts to clean up the figures are on my
local hard drive; the version of the AMS Green Book that is on the CWE retains
the non-intuitive figures; the change that Scott and I are suggesting has not
yet been made)<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>Best regards,<o:p></o:p></p>
