I also didn't get my own email. Glad you caught it from the archives. <<
I followed up with IT - *now* I find out that you actually have to join the OASIS Member Discuss Kavi group to be subscribed and receive the email. That's annoying - wish I'd know that before I started the discussion. I'll be sending a note to let people know...
>> As I guessed, you do have specific problems that you're looking to address. Easier for folks like myself, new to the discussion, to see those stated when roping us in. <<

Thanks - I will fit that in in the future messages.

That's a good starting point - thanks.
