Re: Management of CEA-721

October 9, 2009

Hi Hans,

I received an inquiry from the chairman of the CEA committee that
manages ANSI/CEA-721, Generic CAL.  He asked, "What is the status
of another organization adopting maintenance of the CEA standards?" 

As I explained on September 21, the CEA will be voting on October
20 whether to continue ANSI/CEA-721.  Therefore, I would appreciate
your providing the following information as soon as possible.

1. What is the name of the Norwegian organization that will accept
the CEA offer to manage ANSI/CEA-721?

2. When will this organization be ready to accept the transfer of
responsibility from the CEA?

Your answers may help prevent cancellation of the standard during
the transition to management by your organization.

I look forward to working with you as your project develops.

Sincerely,
Ken
