to exchange witness lists, address pre-trial motions and
stipulations, discuss jury instructions where applicable,
evidentiary issues other than those requiring a hearing
pursuant to CrRLJ 3.5 and 3.6, the amount of time required
for trial, whether or not a jury will be waived, and any
other relevant issues.
