We will respect and maximize the investment of our members by actively seeking ways to avoid duplication of efforts and overlapping development, notifying one another whenever new work is initiated.
	We will encourage our technical working groups to interact with other consortia on related efforts.
	We will communicate in an open forum on a regular basis, scheduling quarterly teleconferences to review potential overlaps.
	We will participate in regular face-to-face meetings at the Interoperability Summit.
