Re: Press release to announce approval of XRD

[Carol Geyer <carol.geyer@oasis-open.org>]

The XRD approval press release has been rescheduled to accommodate
additional Sponsor quotes. If you're working on a quote and would like
to review a draft of the press release, please contact me.

The subhead of the XRD press release will feature the names of all the
organizations represented in the XRI TC at the Sponsor or Foundational
Sponsor level. The list in my original message was incomplete. The
correct list includes:

***
AOL, Boeing, Booz Allen Hamilton, Google, IBM, Neustar, Nomura
Research Institute (NRI), and Others
***

Please contact me for info on adding or removing your organization
from this list or if you have any questions about the press
announcement.

Again, congratulations to all TC members on this accomplishment.

Carol
