Re: [emergency-if] Fwd: [EDXL] "Wrapper" update from Monday 8/23 call

[Rex Brooks <rexb@starbourne.com>]

I may also be wrong, but I think we need to see it because it isn't 
actually cooked yet, to the extent that we may be able to see something 
that other eyes have missed. Also, a US-specific policy or practice is not 
a standard, but certainly needs to be taken into account when/if we take on 
the work of creating a standard.

Ciao,
Rex
