Folks,

First, sorry for my being out of touch for going on a month now. Between holidays, and a very difficult schedule at my day job, I've had no time for coordinating GRAAP things.

sorry, the same happened for me

I would like us to get our plans in place for GGF13. To start, I need a roll call of people who will or will not be attending GGF13. Please respond to the list with a yes or no on whether you will be attending. I will not be able to attend.

I plan to be there, although I have neither done the registration nor travel arrangements.

If we don't have significant participation, I think we may wish to take this GGF off. Our most pressing issue is working through comments on WS-Agreement, but I do not view GGF as a necessary step to do this. If others feel differently, please let me know.

Volker already announced that he can't make it. If there is significant participation I'd offer to chair a session in Seoul dedicated to wrap up with the comments we received so far, cluster them etc. But as Jim said, we don't need this GGF meeting to do this. Best regards Wolfgang

I will not go to GGF13. As some of you know, I will stop working in the US on March 1st (because of an expiring visa) and therefore I do not plan to be attending GGF13. I hope I can continue to participate in GRAAP-WG though, one way or another.
