Hi all,
Over the past few weeks, I have been advocating on behalf of the XSF to
raise awareness within NEN (the Netherlands Standardization Institute) that
XMPP could be an excellent fit for the Dutch NTA 7516 standard, which
focuses on secure communication in healthcare.
This advocacy was primarily through the blog post we discussed last week,
with additional follow-up via social media and email. As a result, I was
invited to an introductory meeting with NEN earlier this week, and
subsequently invited to join the relevant working groups.
Participation in this group would allow the XSF to contribute directly to
the ongoing development of the NTA 7516 standard and ensure that XMPP is
appropriately represented.
While I could join the workgroup on my own behalf, I would prefer to
participate explicitly on behalf of the XSF. This ensures the organization
is officially recognized as a stakeholder and that our collective voice and
expertise are formally included in the development of the standard.
Before proceeding, I would like to request the Board's approval to
participate in the NTA 7516-related working groups on behalf of the XSF.
I am happy to provide additional details or documentation if needed.
Kind regards,
Guus

Hi Guus,
What you're describing is a formalised inter-SDO liaison, and I would
absolutely support the XSF having you in this role if you're willing.
There's a Board meeting tonight and we should discuss this.
Dave.

Hello,
I support this too and I added already this to the agenda.
My only wish would be regular reporting on what is going on and also describe their
perspective and challenges, so we can help to address this best.
Best regards,
Eddie

The XMPP community would display strong support towards the Dutch healthcare sector when
the XSF participates in this standards group.

Normally there is some text here, bragging about the new phone and excusing for the
brevity. That is insane: if this phone was really that great, I would have sent a decent
mail.
