Hi guys,

OGF is still waiting on the revision of the document before it can go
into publication.  I guess summer break does not go nicely with boring
document work :)  Nevertheless, please don't let the document linger
much longer...

While I am on it, I would like to remind the OCCI group that OGF-42 is
planned in London in early September [1], where a couple of topics are
specifically depending on input from OCCI.  Like, the DRMAA folx would
like to finalize the OCCI bindings which are in limbo for quite a
number of months, due to rather small unresolved items (such as how to
render pagination).  So please consider to show up to that event!

Thanks, Andre.

It was a sad and disappointing day when I discovered that my Universal
Remote Control did not, in fact, control the Universe.  (Not even
remotely.)
