History – Starting in Snowmass
•Start over 10 years ago with the “Snowmass Accord” (or the Snowmass Cone Algorithm). 
•
•Idea was to have an agreed upon algorithm (hence accord) that everyone would use.  But, in practice, it was flawed
•
•Was not efficient – experimenters used seeds to limit where one looked for jets – this introduces IR sensitivity at NNLO
•
•Did not treat issue of overlapping cones – split/merge question
•
