may reply to me directly – no need to copy the entire WG. To help with the planning I think we could aim for the usual 4.5 days attendance (concluding Friday morning) given likely joint sessions with SIS DTN WG, and CSS CDDS (Cloud) WG, and perhaps a follow-up
with the SE DOR WG. My apologies for the somewhat short notice, but if you could reply by Monday that would be much appreciated.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
