Re: [sacm] Call for adoption of draft-coffin-sacm-nea-swid-patnc as a SACM WG document

[Adam Montville <[e-mail]>]

Tony,

This working group has, on several occasions, reached out formally to other standards development organizations very early on in our work, and I believe you are well aware of such facts.

I don’t believe we’re ignoring anything or being insular or making preposterous statements, but I am pleased to see that you like the adopted solution.

Kind regards,

Adam
