<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=868374015-26102005>Hi. I'm
currently in the CMC meeting, and there's a discussion going on now about
chartering and authorization of resources. One of the things that some CMC
members are very sensitive about is that they feel that they've chartered a
working group to produce a certain number and type of documents, but working
groups have (unilaterally) changed what they're producing. For example,
the CMC apparently cares if they approved a WG to produce a Blue Book, and that
WG is now planning to produce a Magenta Book instead. Or the WG is
chartered to produce a Blue Book and it plans to produce a Blue and a
Green.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=868374015-26102005>So -- WG chairs,
please look at your charters. Please drop me a note that states what
products (book and color) are in your charter, what books (and colors) you're
currently planning to produce, and the dates (both charter and current).
Please try to do this ASAP. </SPAN></FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=868374015-26102005>For the cases where
there is a discrepancy in either number, color, or schedule, I expect we'll have
to submit revised charters for approval, so be prepared for that. But
let's not cross that bridge yet.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
