Members of the Spec Council and the CX WG Proposers,

Since two members(David and Allen) from the Spec Council are available on 21st tomorrow,
I'd like to schedule a telcon on 3pm 1/21. (Some of us have an ORMS telecon from 2pm, I'll 
make it start 5 mins passed 3pm.)


Here is the access information for the conference bridge tomorrow:

Date:  Thursday, 15 January 2009 USA
Time:  3:05PM - 4:05AM(PST)
(This is PST. Please see the time at your time zone at Doodle.)
TO ACCESS THE AUDIO CONFERENCE:
     Dial In Number: 1 (605) 475-4333
     Access Code: 199834

For the proposers,

Even though you don't update your schedule yet, please feel free to join the meeting.

Best,
Tatsuki
