<!-- Converted from text/rtf format -->
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">I revised the CR again again to respond to another ballot comment. The person making the comment is an old hand at CIM, but the comment is, I believe, way out in left field. It asks that we define Indications and then embed those in the log. This contravenes the recently published RecordLog Profile, which we are trying to follow, and would require that we put the cart well in front of the horse. No way. </FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">This calls for a FINAL ballot, which must pass by 3/4. My friends here at Dell and I are jawboning other companies to vote in our favor. Keep your fingers, and any other digital devices you can find, crossed. </FONT></P>
