I am very glad and agree with this observation of positive exchanges 
happening in the Topic Maps camp, and would encourage its 
continuation.  As this community is deciding participation in OASIS 
and ISO, I suggest that we all start thinking about our roles in 
either of the two organizations (i.e., not both).  As I see it, the 
two organizations are going to champion different (layer of) 
functionality of Topic Maps, and we will need people with different 
skills and knowledge to be involved.
