We will be meeting this week in Montreal in conjunction with the Extreme
Markup conference.

On Thursday evening from 6-8 there will be an organizational meeting with
Scott McGrath about OASIS and how TopicMaps.Org will fit together.

On Saturday we will be meeting from 9-5 to set up the new charter, elect
officers, and begin the procerss of starting technical committees. During
this meeting we will decide the short-term direction for TopicMaps.Org over
the next year or so. Since we are not a fully-formed member section at this
time there will be a meeting fee (<$50 CDN)associated with this meeting to
cover the cost of the meeting room for Saturday. If meetings continue on
Sunday, a more informal location will be selected so as to avoid further
fees.
