Hi Jimi, et. al.,

I had hoped to be on today's call but am out sick with a bad cold
unfortunately. I have added a couple of pages on the proposed action team
work that Jimi mentions - located at the bottom of our Standards page under
Related Action Teams.

You all are welcome to explore that briefly or table this until next call.
I'm happy to follow-up once I get to feeling a little better with an email
that elaborates on the information there. I'll be supplying a use case from
the MetaArchive perspective in the next couple of weeks as well. Apologies
for not being able to make it on the call today.

All best,

Matt
