Going with September 30 F2F date

[Steve Hanna <steve.hanna@sun.com>]

Jeff tells me that he can probably come to a face-to-face
meeting on September 30. I haven't heard any objections
to this date since my last email. And we have RSVPs from
a quorum of the PKI TC members. Therefore, let's go with
that date.

The next meeting of the OASIS PKI TC will be Tuesday,
September 30, 2003, 8:00 AM - 4:30 PM at the Computer
Associates office in Herndon, Virginia, USA:

Computer Associates
2291 Wood Oak Drive
Herndon, Virginia  20171

Thanks to everyone for your patience. Let's hope the
hurricanes hold off for this next meeting. If not, we'll
just stick with our conference calls! :-)

Thanks,

Steve
