Hi Steve-

This change is made mostly because the name 'Narrow Waist' was a  
little confusing.  The scope of the working group has been expanded as  
well (this will appear on geni.net soon):

Scope:  What is universal across GENI components? How will evolution  
be accommodated with or without a full transition of all GENI nodes at  
once?  Topics in scope include:
- component control (obtaining and managing resources)
- slice control (interfaces and mechanisms for establishing and  
controlling slices)
- access control within GENI (usage policy representation and  
administration mechanisms)
- interactions external to GENI (facility federation)
- key enablers (identity, authentication)

So, I wouldn't call this a particularly 'deep' change but more a  
clarification.  I expect other groups to clarify their charters as the  
nature of the work becomes more clear.
