Werner's comment suggestion is a good one (I believe). It does not explicitly rename CAP as EDXL-CAP but it does place CAP within the EDXL family. This may be a good way to gravitate slowly towards the EDXL-CAP 1.2 re-titling of the CAP standard.

Werner, Based on your comment below I did go back and pull relevant section from notes captured in EM-TC 9-29-09 minutes. I don’t see a decision to change any references of “CAP” to “EDXL-CAP” but there is a motion to reference “EDXL including CAP” for all communication about the standards.
Here is relevant portion of the meeting notes
CAP and the EDXL family of Standards.
…Since this has been the process for all Standards to date beginning with CAP and including EDXL-DE, EDXL-RM, EDXL-HAVE, the group discussed the need to single CAP out rather than include it in the EDXL "family." Discussion included the fact that CAP is transport agnostic and maybe should be considered separately for that reason. However, the others are really transport agnostic. CAP was done before the EDXL name was coined and the process formalized at DHS S&T. However, it was basically the same idea. After further discussion on the topic, TGrapes made and RBrooks seconded a motion that EM-TC begin using "EDXL including CAP" for all communication about our Standards. All agreed.
If we need to adjust further please let me know. Thanks, -Camille

thanks for the updated text - looks good, and to the point.
I do have ambivalent feelings about the reference to CAP: on one hand it best is known under that name; on the other hand the EM-TC had decided at the Baltimore F2F to use the designation EDXL-CAP henceforth.
My first idea would be to simply replace all occurrences of CAP with EDXL-CAP. On second thought however I'd like to suggest that we rewrite the first sentence of the 2nd paragraph in a more "viral" manner as
"Vendors may provide a description of their product and identify specific EDXL standards which are supported (CAP, DE, HAVE, and/or RM)."
Cheers,
Werner

Subject: [emergency-adopt] EDXL Product Directory - Vendor Outreach Updated
Here is an updated vendor outreach email based on discussion in EM-TC
meeting today. Carol Geyer is POC for vendor questions and her email
address has been added.
The OASIS Emergency Management Adoption Technical Committee invites
vendors to register with the new EDXL Product Directory -
http://oasis-emergency.org/products. The directory provides a searchable
listing of products implementing the EDXL suite of standards including
CAP.
Vendors may provide a description of their product and identify specific
standards which are supported (CAP, EDXL-DE, EDXL-HAVE, and/or EDXL-RM).
The directory also allows vendors to identify participation in
interoperability demonstrations and the NIMS Supporting Technology
Evaluation Program (NIMS STEP).
There are no fees associated with
listing a product.
To take advantage of this opportunity please visit
http://oasis-emergency.org/products and select the "Add Product" link in
the upper right corner of the page. You will be directed to the Log-in
page to create an account. Upon registration you will receive a reply
email with a password and initial instructions.
If you have any questions please contact Carol Geyer at
Carol.Geyer@oasis-open.org.
Regards,
