This short press release from the AMPTP (studio alliance) says it all.  Not particularly encouraging:
STATEMENT BY THE AMPTP
       A small group from AMPTP and SAG met today.  Both parties agreed that
       the contents of the meeting should be kept private.  No further meetings
       have been scheduled.
