We'd welcome your involvement.  I'd summarize the current work as
pertaining to what happens when you want to copy or (especially)
move a filesystem over a network, where you may either be unable
to have the new server handle the same filehandle or need to take
pains to communicate the filehandle.  Multi-hosted disks may not
need attention from the server-to-server protocol we need to work
out, but please do keep us honest in that area :-)  The minutes
will appear on the WG alias, and I'll include you in the review
of an Internet-Draft-to-be we talked about in the meeting.
