[Secretariat] [CMC] Authorization to create the Digital Repository Audit and Certification Working Group

[Giaretta, DL (David)]

Hi Mike

I guess it was a bit detailed but it shows the level of commitment that people have made. The 0.05 is essentially one morning a week - helf spent on a weekly 90 min telecon and the rest spread over the week doing "homework". I'd be quite happy to just indicate "Other" with the appropriate total. However I believe that people have made a real commitment over the time needed to finish the work.

Regards

..David
