[DAIS-WG] DAIS working group chair vacancy

[Mario Antonioletti]

Hi,
    On behalf of the group I would like to thank Dave for the hard work 
that he has put in steering the group with Norman and then on his own.
We look forward to his future participation in the group in a 
non-chair capacity,

Mario
