Re: Intro for Gail Frederick

Hi, Gail-

It was great to meet you at W3Conf, and I'm very glad you followed up 
here on the WebEd CG list.

In addition to the projects in progress that Chris mentioned, if you 
have ideas for additional directions, it would be great to hear them.

Looking forward to working with you!

Regards-
-Doug
