mm1: Matt, reviewing minutes may only partially indicate any ongoing
work or progress. To your question re: the JC, it has made progress
(albeit slowly). For example, ebMS-CPPA-ebBP have been using that forum
to aid in aligning new specification versions, and encourage comment
from other JC members. This helps provide the capability to continue to
evolve the architecture of the set of ebXML components (even if
loosely). As you have resigned as ebSOA editor, who will ebSOA consider
to propose as a JC member, or is a question for John (Hardin)? Thank you.
