I didn't realize - I can add people too. Feel free to click on the link below and request to join the group and I'll add you. As a member of the group you'll be able to see the Google Doc spreadsheet that we started using a few months ago to record information for our standards survey. You'll be able to see what was done and, more importantly, what kinds of information we were recording.

Thank you for reminding me, Stephen! The Google Group is here: http://groups.google.com/group/ndsa-standards-working-group?hl=en

You'll have to become a member, of course. I'm sending you an invite. If that doesn't work then I believe Andrea can add you. We've had a number of people join in the past couple months so I'm guessing we'll have to add several of you.

Best,

Jimi

Hi, Jimi:  Thanks for the notes.  Could you remind me and/or post a link to the previous inventory you had done on Google Docs?  (Maybe it's on the wiki somewhere, but I don't find it right now.)  Thanks, /Stephen
