Next Face to Face

[ian.c.jones@bt.com]

We have kindly been offered facilities for our next face to face meeting by
SAP in Palo Alto, California.  The current plan is for the CPPA To meet
October 1&2 then a joint meeting with us on the 3rd followed by our meeting
4&5. Thank you to Sinisa Zimek for this.

The reason for the joint day is to resolve some of the interface problems
between the CPPA work and the message service specification.  I expect this
to be a vital day as this is one of the actions we tried but never succeeded
in achieving during the initial ebXML work.

Dale Moberg (chair of CPPA TC) and I will co-ordinate the agendas to ensure
that we can get the maximum benefit from everyone's valuable time.  I'll
post a outline agenda for our meeting soon but I expect it to follow the
format of the calls but we will need to spend  significant time completing
the version 1 revision and we MUST resolve any outstanding issues at that
time.  If anyone has suggestions or ideas please send them to me.  The first
extra thing I would like us to do, is to detail our work plan now that we
have some tasks started and are identify others that "should" be worked on.

I will be asking for tentative attendance commitment early in September so
that we can gauge numbers.

I hope the location resolves most of the issues.
