Re: [atoca] The future of atoca

Mark makes the essential point, IMHO.  This working group may simply have been ahead of its time.  So if the WG format isn't appropriate... I don't really have an opinion on that... I hope we can find some way to keep a less formal conversation going among folks who are interested, in anticipation that relevant issues may come clear over the next few years.
