Wow, I have been away from my email for a couple of days, and now I get the pleasure of seeing this announcement and the pursuing thread of joy. I feel so lucky to have been welcomed into this working group. It’s been a fantastic experience, in part because of the work and in larger part because of the people. Thank you to everyone for your hard work and for your fellowship. I really hope we are able to continue in some form where I can be a helpful contributor. A community group sounds like a great idea. Special thanks to Phil, the editors, the chairs, and the leads of the vocabularies. You guys did the hard work to make all this happen.
