Yes, it is. How do we reach out to these people? They need to know that CAP is an international standard supported and endorsed by the World Meteorological Organization and also ITU-T Recommendation 1303. We can also point them to the 10+ years of annual workshops we have had on the topics.

FYI per interest, in case anyone missed it:
W3C Public Alert Community Group
The Public Alert CG aims to establish specifications for a regional or global network that can send urgent information to any connected device. PALCG will improve upon US's WEA and intends to implement a similar system globally....This is a community initiative. This group was originally proposed on 2016-12-20 by Jacob Pratt. The following people supported its creation: Jacob Pratt, Jacinto Mendez, Andy Robinson, Stian Soiland-Reyes, Mohamed ZERGAOUI. W3C’s hosting of this group does not imply endorsement of the activities.
