I can't commit to taking a lead on this one, but i hope someone else 
does.. with bill's hard work last year, and all those who supported, 
this ended being a very productive workshop.. and one that was seen 
to be really controversial at the outset.. i hope we can continue 
building on that work

i would be happy to be involved in  WG on this one
