I will be happy to facilitate the review, but I will need one or more of you to present the candidate standard in the meeting. Those meetings are at 1430 UTC (at least through the Northern Hemisphere summer) and occur every two weeks. We could get this on the agenda as early as 8 August.

I can help with this but most likely Simon and Armin are better choices.

The expectation is that, apart from updates to implementation reports, minor editorial updates to specs and calls for consensus, the working group will be mostly dormant.

The draft charter for a possible Spatial Data on the Web Interest Group, set to achieve the W3C side of the Joint W3C/OGC Organizing Committee (JWOC), has been sent out to W3C Advisory Committee for review.
