Andrew Jones:  conclusions (personal view);  great deal of chaos re definitions of trust, confusion of what is required of definition.  Different factors are mixed together.  Three strands to systamatic characterization:  Christiano, Theo, own...  Sufficient common ground to hope to move toward presentation of definition. Good deal of work needs to be done to establish this common ground.
