 * Question from Jitin Asaani: To what extent are the participants in this Use Case involved with the next steps of the Direct Reference Implementation and Piloting?
 * John Moehrke created implementation guidance for the LDAP/ DNS Hybrid Approach which will be a part of the consensus next Monday.
 * Use Case 2 Updates:
 * Because Microdata is not an established standard, very few SMEs exist on our workstream calls.
 * We will most likely need to interface with individuals outside of the scope of the initiative to establish the standard more concretely.
 * Discussion regarding the necessity of establishing a lead; is Microdata useful to pursue considering the lack of expertise?
 * Bob Dieterle and Karen Witting: We know that there are outside individuals and companies who have interest; why can we not get those folks to talk with our initiative groups?
 * Jitin Asaani: There is a group of people who are very interested in the subject whowant to make rapid progress and are doing work independent of the S&I Framework Initiatives.
 * Arien Malec, Wes Richell, David McCallie, among others are contributing to this initiative.
 * We should be able to be educated enough to articulate issues to the folks that are working on the Microdata standards in other arenas.
 * Lin Wan: Is there any possibility of gaining access to their initial work so that we don’t make mistakes twice, etc.?
 * Jitin: We should attempt to gain some information from that Microdata group for our purposes.
 * Critical to create some sort of clear channel for information sharing between our Microdata workstream and the other Microdata workgroup.
