Sorry Guys, I had an emergency with my young daughter hence I missed the call this morning. CDDLM is doing fine, we went through discussions around SF-based language spec with the decision to proceed with the formal standards track. We are internally reviewing XML-based language spec and awaiting two other specs to be compelted. AS far as I understand, we plan to attend GGF 13, but this is still not a final decision. Thanks, Dejan.

Hi,

Happy New Year.

In an effort to increase communication among the groups, and pass feedback to the ADs and GFSG, please send sched-chairs@ggf.org an update on your group, where the group is with respect to the milestones, and whether you are planning on having any sessions in Korea, and, as always, if there is anything we can do to help you and your group succeed.

Thanks again,
