thanks John you got exactly to the point I was looking at and you actually
hit the vendor I was talking about that was missing from that list I think
it's really important that this work happens I think this is an excellent
group and we should support their work and we should contribute I think
it's also very valuable that we continue to have this kind of conversation.
Patrick I'm very glad that you emphasized and pointed out the github page
4jaws. But remember that was only released a week or two ago I think it's
critical that they created this it's just sad that it taken so long to come
I'm very happy this working group exists but I think we all need to have
more conversations about these kinds of things so that we know what's going
on and when.
