RE: [materials] Public Review of Materials Markup Language PR1

["Craig Seymour" <craig.seymour@grantadesign.com>]

Mary,

I'd like to point some folks at the OASIS website for information about
the public review of MatML.  I've looked at the 'Review' section on the
homepage, but it doesn't list MatML.  Is there another area of the
website from the announcement is linked?

I realise I can point them directly to the email announcement
(http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/materials/200609/msg00002.html),
but I feel that doesn't look too good - it's not exactly up front, and
looks as if MatML is somehow using the back door.

Craig
