Subject: RE: [emergency-msg] Update: Change day of week (& Time?) request; was Sorry I was late, I'm on now
Everyone, Regarding the day of week change, that was my request because I have a long term personal commitment on Tuesday evenings. As suggested below, if the call were moved to 5:00 EST, no problem. Otherwise I would like to propose the call happen on either Wednesday or Thursday of the meeting week. Thanks, Tim Grapes Evolution Technologies, Inc.

I sounded him out about an observation that jumped out at me during last week's Semantic Interoperability for E-Government Conference. I think one of the largely unnoticed problems that cropped up during the EDXL_DE process is that at some points we were confusing or conflating a Reference Information Model (RIM) with a Document Object Model. What we were doing was a DOM-based specification, as is EDXL_RM, but the overall EDXL effort needs to have a RIM, IMHO. So I wanted to start that discussion on the TC list which I will do under a separate message to keep that thread to itself on the overall TC list, since I also believe that effort belongs at that level, not the SC level. Renato also informed me that there was a suggestion that it would be more convenient for some of us to move the day to Wednesday or Thursday, and I wanted to say that either are fine with, and if I wasn't scheduled to be traveling to and participating in the Fourth National Medical Banking Institute, I would offer to schedule another meeting next week, which would synch this meeting up the TC meeting. We can conduct that discussion here, so I made it explicit in the Subject Line, so we can find it in the email archives. I would prefer Thursday. Renato suggested that we could also change the time to 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time, if that would make it easier for East Coast statesiders, and that is also perfectly fine with me. Last item: Today was proof that we definitely need a co-chair. I could not have known that I would be delayed, so I couldn't have given a heads up. It's been one of those days, with a large outage in Illinois that seriously disrupted a bout of distributed, bi-coastal and mountain region, proposal writing, and there's just no knowing when something like that will happen, and our deadline was 11:00 a.m. Eastern Time tomorrow. As a flight attendance once remarked as we were preparing for departure and the overhead racks were filled to bursting, "Watch out ... shift happens." That's no excuse, of course, but we've all been there. So, please consider volunteering for the co-chair seat. Regards,' Rex My deepest apologies, I was held up, but I finally got connected. I am on now, fwiw. I will hold on till the bottom of the hour, 4:30 p.m. Pacific Time. Again.
