- I, and I expect many others on the net, would like to express my thanks to
- John for the work he has done over nearly six years in this newsgroup.
-
- In that time the group has been valuable in raising public awareness in the
- standards process, providing wide, easy and rapid access to pertinent
- information, and providing a forum for much valuable discussion of standards
- issues.
-
- Many people have made contributions to the group, but John has held it
- together.
-
- Thank you!
