Hi

My two cents : I have to agree with Avri. To my knowledge the MAG didn't 
not take any decision to stop the OCDC (I can't remember neither any 
formal discussion about stopping a working group or DC). It's however 
true that some MAG members, who were members of this group, announced 
that they were leaving it (I understood they said it was not working 
properly).But there was no MAG decision about it.
