Team, Kathryn and I brainstormed on a timeline for the 3.0 spec 
finalization and approval process earlier today.
Here is my recollection from that discussion on the proposed plan:

-regrep-3.0-draft-01 distribution posted for review (1/4/2005)

-Discussion of regrep-3.0-draft-01 distribution in regrep TC meeting 
(1/13/2005)

-Deadline for submitting all TC comments on regrep-3.0-draft-01 
distribution to regrep list (1/20/2005)

-regrep-3.0-draft-02 distribution posted for review to address issues 
identified (1/24/2005)

-Vote on approving regrep-3.0-draft-02 distribution as TC Approved 
regrep-3.0-cd-01 (1/27/2005)

We then submit regrep-3.0-cd-01 specs for OASIS public review during 
most of February (assuming we vote to approve doing so).
We then make any final changes to specs based upon public review 
feedback and submit for OASIS approval (assuming we vote to approve 
doing so).

The above timeline suggests that barring unforeseen circumstances we may 
get an OASIS Approved 3.0 spec sometime around late March 2005
time frame.

All of above plan is predicated on us doing a rigorous review during 
between now and January 20, 2005.
Thanks in advance for your support and help in helping us get the 3.0 
specs completed.

I look forward to your thoughts and comments.
