interested in working on these items, contact the champion.  The Priority 3 
items will be discussed at the next meeting.

4. Discussion of UID e-mail message - The TC discussed the question that 
was raised in 
http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/regrep/200204/msg00016.html .  The 
short answer is that the BP and CC folks can make use of the External 
Identifier functionality to correspond a meaningful (i.e., human 
understandable relative to a DCE 128 bit identifier) unique identifier to a 
registered item.  David Webber agreed to respond to the original author 
with a clarifying explanation.

5. Subteam reports - Minute taker missed this item. However the CC sub-team 
had a conference call scheduled for the day after this TC meeting.

release on the SourceForge implementation.  The announcement will be linked

who had a press release that relates to the TC or its work items may have 
their press release linked from the News section.
