Please pay special attention to the issues marked *.  I believe these
are the ones where last-minute wording changes might have invalidated
consensus. I hope I was adequately cautious in my mailing to X3J13.

I am going to be on vacation starting next Wednesday until right before
the X3J13 meeting.

David Moon has kindly offered this group a meeting room at Symbolics on
Monday. I suggest we start at 10:00, with a break for lunch, and plan on
ending around 4:00 PM.  

We have a request from Skona Brittain (an X3J13 member from
Microcomputer Systems Consultants in Santa Barbara) to join the cleanup
committee. Unfortunately, she does not have mail access. While it seems
unlikely that anyone not on the net could usefully participate, I am
reluctant to turn down enthusiastic volunteers.
