Keld has also indicated a willingness to support the effort as may be needed, and this is also appreciated. Given the current interest in bringing about a strong common ground with the Open Group, IEEE and WG15, there are some additional candidates I would encourage to come forward. Roger is certainly one that would have very strong support from every sector, but so far he has had to decline the encouragement of many to take on this role. It would be useful for your delegation at the SC22 meeting to be aware of your interest in seeing the work continue, and your willingness to help to make sure that happens. Thanks again, Jim Isaak
