UPDATE: Concerning the Registration and Discovery RFP, here is an update - the RFP was successfully issued during the Mesa meeting in Arizona. The LOI deadline is March 10, 2000 (Friday of the OMG meeting week). Currently there is an LOI from OSM. CommerceNet intends to support OSM in its submission (CommerceNet is not yet a member as as such cannot LOI directly). The initial and revised submission dates are May 23 and November 6 respectively.
