Re: SC activities

Dear George,
Thank you very much it is very useful.
I agree with most of them, I would only like to add some details to the activity descriptions to strengthen the strategic role for the future development such as:

In 2 Collect needs from the different market segments of the Publishing industry for the future development of new specs
In 6 Collect useful information from the Publishing industry on other web related areas of future development that may be of interest (payment, video, etc) and become the bridge of the Publishing industry with other Business group/areas of the W3C

I was also wondering if we may consider that some of the activities may be specifically and mainly managed with a stronger support from Bill ie activities 3,4,5.

All my best

Dear SC and Avneesh,

Below is a list of activities that Avneesh developed with my modest input. Avneesh and I thought it would be useful to distribute before the call on Friday.
