Our agenda is set, though we welcome any additional announcements or 
topics for discussion:

--  Discussion of the work being done on the Cost of Resource 
Exchange (CORE). The group working this standard has submitted the 
proposal to NISO and are waiting to hear back if it has been approved 
for further work under NISO sanction. Feedback on the draft is very 
welcome. -- Ed Riding and Jeff Aipperspach
     A brief draft description: "The purpose of this specification is 
to facilitate the exchange of cost and related financial information 
by an Electronic Resource Management System (ERMS) from an Integrated 
Library System (ILS) Acquisitions module. The population of ERMS 
financial data from the ILS Acquisitions system makes cost-per-click 
and other cost-related reports in the ERMS all the more
possible."
