Subject: Re: [regrep] Meeting reminder and agenda for meeting TODAY


In advance of this meeting, I have posted the latest draft of the 
CC-Review STC work on the SC website.  This work is still not ready for 
comments but getting very close.  It has been substantially worked on 
since the last version (0.2) and is now in version 0.78.

I can introduce the document during the conf call today if required.

Requirements:

Someone to put into OASIS format (editing work).
Someone to re-write the XML Schema (not yet but soon).
