* Algorithms and cone sizes * jet calibration procedures and systematics * Large angle FSR photons and jet/lepton overlap removal. Leptons, neutrinos, FSR photons included or not in jet definition? * Make a list of possible additional measurements, of interest for EW physics or PDF determinations. For example: - W+charm - gamma + charm - Z + b
