i cannot be present, but can check whether another telcordia person can attend.
as far as the draft is concerned, we're talking actually only about two 
objects,
of which only one is under debate. dave p. had volunteered a fix, so that could
be something to discuss (URN approach). i'm personally rather flexible wrt the
solution so if either the meeting or an adhoc group can coble up something
we can put it in the draft and be done.

wrt the charter, perhaps bert can give some guidance here.
i suppose we dont need a meeting for that but i may be wrong.
the draft has been out there for a while and there have not
been proposals for additional functions, so the scope
of the requested work is rather clear. and with dan's offer
as reviewer we have a straightforward path to wrapup.
