Re: transitions to Working Group'

I have just submitted my response and hard commitment. I have been able to finally arrive at this hard commitment, because of the necessary standardization work that I am already required to do in light of my research efforts and proposed projects that will be submitted for funding under Horizon 2020, the European Union research funding program.
