Thanks.

I agree again. I think with those 4 points we worked out during 
discussions we really identified the major topics. I think what Sandy 
means is, that we have to work on how we transport the message to people 
who are not experts in Web Technology and 3D graphics. A kind of 
"elevator pitch" for the CG mission would be useful.

Regarding TPAC. Ian Jacobs is about to organize an "Unconference" [1] at 
the Plenary Day (Wednesday). This will be the forum for all community 
activities and we can have a slot there to present our work. Depending 
on how far we are until then, we should also try to communicate with 
other WGs (CSS, SVG, HTML etc).

I would suggest to have a Working meeting Mo/Tue before the Plenary Day.

I like Sandy's dec3d proposal. I'd consider it not a replacement for the 
"Declarative 3D" but rather a working title for the outcome of the CG.


Best regards,
