Dear Editorial Board members: At today's meeting of the DITA Adoption Committee, I agreed to chair a subcommittee that will focus on the dita.xml.org focus area. Several people -- Gershon Joseph, Bob Thomas, Scott Tsao, David Hollis, and Brenda Oakley -- also agreed to participate. Su-Laine wasn't on today's call, but I sent her a personal e-mail asking if she will participate. Two questions for all of you:

We have several of the same members -- Kay, Kris Eberlein, Su-Laine. I don't think we can include Bob or Don. Don isn't a member of the Adoption TC but could certainly join to participate in the EdBoard. Same for Bob, who would be most welcome. I'd like to get some new members with energy for this activity. Would you be able to join our meeting on Monday 18 August to describe the activities we want help with? I know you've been discouraged at the level of participation because everyone is so busy. We all have good intentions but often business demands come first. Thanks for all you've done for the focus area. Let's see if we can liven things up. At Monday's meeting I mentioned the myths page and asked people to consider contributing. Thanks, JoAnn JoAnn T.

We can give EdBoard members a deadline (two weeks?) to join the Committee, then discontinue use of the dita-fa-edboard@lists.xml.org mailing list. Keeping both lists active will cause confusion.
