Hello all,

I should add that whilst the working group mailing lists will be
archived it will be impossible to post to these working group lists.
Everyone's subscription will be folded into the CPWG mailing list, which
will make things a lot easier and avoid duplication of messages and the
(too often) messages held for moderation.
Kindest regards,

Olivier
