will be to elect a chair (or two co-chairs). All individuals interested in
serving as a Chair, or in nominating another individual for the position of
Chair, are welcome to make that candidacy known, prior to the meeting, by
posting a note to the TC's e-mail list expressing their interest and/or intent
along with a brief statement of their qualifications. However, this is not
required, and the committee will be open to nominations from any qualified
persons at its first meeting as well. Regards, Mary --------------------------------------------------- Mary P McRae Director, Technical Committee Administration OASIS: Advancing open standards for the information
