Several standards are undergoing adoption votes including OpenMI version 2.0 and the CRS extension to WCS. There has been no general discussion about either of these on the TC Discussion list so I presume they will be adopted when the vote closes. WCS continues its incredible progress driven by the inexhaustible productivity of Peter Baumann. I am less aware of the work of other groups like catalog, processing services, feature services and observation services. There is ongoing work on SPARQL and on the semantic web. The PubSub standards working group feel they are close to releasing their draft specification for comment, first inside the OGC and then to the public. The group is motivated by work on the next generation US Air Traffic Control system and the need for actors to get regular updates, say on weather in a flight corridor,
