> ==== proposed extension request follows =====
> 
> Dear Steve and Chris,
> 
> The WebCGM Working Group requests a 6 month extension to its 
> charter in order to finalize uncompleted tasks from its 
> current charter.
> The WebCGM WG Charter is currently terminating on 31 May 2007 [1].
> 
> The WebCGM Working Group has fulfilled most of its Mission 
> and Scope [2] successfully, providing chartered deliverables 
> [2b] with publication of a WebCGM 2.0 Recommendation [3] and 
> an OASIS Standard [4],  an Interoperability Implementation 
> Report [5], a Test Suite [6] and addressing a few WebCGM 2.0 
> Recommendation Errata [7].
> 
> The WebCGM Working has not had time yet to finalize the 
> following deliverables as mentioned in its charter[2b]:
> 
> 1- collecting and publishing pending WebCGM 1.0 errata
> 2- publication of a WebCGM 1.0 third release
> 3- collecting and publishing WebCGM 2.0 errata, if required
> 4- Organize a F2F to finalize these items.
> 
> Furthermore WebCGM experts have compiled a preliminary list 
> of functionalities which were arguably within the scope of 
> the WebCGM 2.0 Rec, but were not addressed for timing reasons 
> -- they arose too late in the process. Some new features that 
> might be potentially desirable for a future WebCGM 2.x 
> version are also under discussion.
> 
> During its extension period, the WG will monitor these 
> external developments, and will decide before the end of the 
> extension period whether there is justification and 
> requirement to re-charter the WG with appropriate scope, to 
> encompass the new work.
> 
> A resolution to request a charter extension was accepted by 
> the WebCGM WG at during its telecon [8]. All WG members in 
> good standing have indicated they support this charter 
> extension  and will continue to support the work of the WebCGM WG.
> 
> If you should decide to approve this request, then, at your 
> discretion, you may consider granting more than 6 months 
> (e.g., up through end of this calendar year).
> 
> 
> On behalf of Lofton Henderson, Chair of the WebCGM WG,
> 
> Regards,
> Thierry Michel.
