When we went through a reorganization two years ago, I wrote quite a few memos that said "you are new to this position and may not have a complete understanding of what I do. These are the most important things that you, my new boss, should know about." A colleague who is leaving for greener pastures later on this month is composing a memo that says "these are the issues that are outstanding, my reccomendations on how to handle them, and don't blame me if they're not adequately addressed." My impression of the Clarke memo is that it's a combo of the two versions.
