Welcome to the public-ilreq-admin list

folks,

I have just created a new group in the W3C groups database, called Indic 
Layout Task Force.  See
https://www.w3.org/2000/09/dbwg/details?group=76791

With the group set up comes a dedicated mailing list, 
public-ilreq-admin, which can be used for adminstrative internal 
discussions of the Indic Layout Task Force. (Note that all technical 
discussions should continue on public-i18n-indic@w3.org.  This list is 
likely to see little use – it may be used to post meeting agendas and 
regrets, to discuss practical issues related to the organization of the 
group, etc.)

Only members of the Indic Layout Task Force can send email to and 
receive email from this list.

Having the group set up in the database allows us to move forward with 
the task force, per the new charter.  We now need to ensure that we 
establish a quorum of task force members who will make it representative 
of the stakeholder communities.

Somnath, Swaran, please forward to me and Mahesh the names of people you 
feel should be added to the group. These people will need to obtain a 
W3C username, if they don't have one, and must make some level of 
commitment to participate, such as attendance at meetings, editorial 
work, etc. (Mahesh, you are not currently a group member: should I add 
you?)

By the way, I already have a proposal for one new participant in mind: 
Anshuman Pandey[1], currently a post-doctoral researcher in the 
Department of Linguistics at the University of California, Berkeley, and 
one of the key drivers of new Indic script proposals for Unicode. He 
works with Debbie Anderson at the Script Encoding Initiative (SEI), and 
asked me if he could join the group.  Swaran, Mahesh, if you are ok with 
this, please let me know and I will help to bring him on board.


hope that helps,

ri
