Re: [members] #EDXL CAP v1.2 Australia (AU) Profile v1.0 Committee Specification 02 published

Dear Chet, Elysa and all,
Congratulations! I am delighted to see the progress that has been made.

It is excellent to have the Australia profile.

As you know, my role in OASIS has changed and I no longer work directly on CAP and emergency standards, but I remain interested and I am really pleased to see such an achievement.

Best wishes,

Carol
