Subject: Re: FW: Call for Review: XML Protocol Activity Proposal
Everyone,
I have explored expanding our involvement to include the activity
discussed below. We are very interested in supporting the action. I
believe there may be others within TPR that also want to be involved so I
would like to discuss this during our meeting in San Jose.j
