[ Steve Carter can apparently be reached as

	uunet!usenix!bellcore!pyuxv!ctsd!slc2

and it is possible that slc2 at bellcore.bellcore.com may also work.
I have sent him a request for details to post to comp.std.unix.
My understanding is that there will be a brief meeting of the
new subcommittee at the Hawaii 1003 meeting (end of October),
but that real work probably won't commence until next year.

Administration Workshop in November.  -mod ]
