[13:08] <IanPPWG> I haven't heard from Judy on charter stuff.
[13:08] <IanPPWG> Hi Tim.
[13:08] <jongund> Jim is there any news on the UAAG vs. 508

comparison document.
[13:09] <jongund> Jim did a bunch of changes, sent to katie
[13:09] <jongund> JA: Has not heard from Katie
[13:09] <IanPPWG> Jim, it would be good to send changes to the ua list so 
that they are archived, available to others.

review reviewed?
[13:11] <jongund> Tim is checking his schedule

completing action items

increase their advocacy of UAAG and participate in the UAWG
[13:17] <jongund> CUrrent working group memebers if they know of good 
people in disability organizations to send their name to Judy, the list, 
Jon and Ian
[13:18] <jongund> Ian time UAAG will be reduced starting January 1st
[13:18] <jongund> We will have less of his time to work on documents
