Re: New list set up for SUMO (request for clarification)
John,
SUMO is one of multiple starter documents being worked within the
SUO WG.
It now has multiple parties from multiple organizations who need
to work together on the document, hence the creation of a separate
distribution list. This list is open for anyone to join.
SUMO was originally submitted by Teknowledge, but when it passed
as a starter document, it became a work effort of this WG. The new SUMO
home page will have links to all the proprosed versions of the document,
which will now have only the IEEE copyright on it.
