Hi, We need to schedule sessions independently of whether we know who will actually attend. As of now, we only know for fact that Steev will not attend. We also know that all others (Kojo, Jun, Stuart, and myself are planning to attend). Stuart also agreed to represent Steve and if he can not make it, we will find another workaround. Under this assumption, let's plan with the following sessions: - Component model - Deployment APIs - Closing on the XML-based language spec - Planning CDDLM after the first round of specs (in particular given the IUDD emergence, CIM, and WSDM compliances, etc.). Does this sound reasonable? I will assume that silence means agreement, but I would prefer to hear back from you. I may have some constraints on my trip, so I will try to have all meetings take place on 15 and 16. Please confirm if there is any issue with this. Thanks, Dejan. -----Original Message----- From: owner-sched-chairs@ggf.org [mailto:owner-sched-chairs@ggf.org] On Behalf Of Bill Nitzberg Sent: Thursday, January 20, 2005 10:02 AM To: sched-chairs@ggf.org Cc: 'Stacey Giannese' Subject: [sched-chairs] SRM Area -- Please schedule your sessions!!!
