Wikipedia
defined
A definition is a statement of the meaning of a term (a word, phrase, or other set of symbols). Definitions can be classified into two large categories: intensional definitions (which try to give the sense of a term), and extensional definitions (which try to list the objects that a term describes). Another important category of definitions is the class of ostensive definitions, which convey the meaning of a term by pointing out examples. A term may have many different senses and multiple meanings, and thus require multiple definitions.In mathematics, a definition is used to give a precise meaning to a new term, by describing a condition which unambiguously qualifies what a mathematical term is and is not. Definitions and axioms form the basis on which all of modern mathematics is to be constructed.

The issues are well defined, the issues have been narrowed. We still don't have a final resolution of the issues, but both sides are determined to do enough to try to reach an agreement and are working very hard to do that.
Attorney General Loretta Lynch:
To qualify, the U.K. government would have to agree to a number of provisions designed to protect privacy and fundamental rights, and a U.K. order would have to comply with UK law, this agreement would release American companies from conflicting legal obligations in clearly and carefully defined circumstances. It would help one of our oldest and closest allies perform high-priority criminal investigations that keep its citizens safe -- and many of which, in our age of transnational crime and terrorism, also further American interests.
