I agree with this summary of what we decided.  I will add that
I volunteered to provide a first stab at the test plan by the
end of May.  I have actually started it and promise to make the
deadline.  Once it is out, I hope that all interested parties
will comment.  I suggest that we come to final agreement at
the August AIW so that I can make the final preparations.

Did we decide to have an "aiw-dlsw-interop" mailing list?  Or do
we just want to do it through the general list?  Actually, I imagine
that everyone is on the aiw-dlsw-connect list anyway, so we
could save some administrative burden and just use the connect list.  
Any objections?
