Dimitris Koureas says yes. Quote:

In principle, we would be delighted to participate in a DwC hour session. As you know, however, DiSSCo is still in the early phases of designing and delivering its technical architecture. Although the principles are there, we still need to look carefully into the details of how the overall architecture is delivered. So, in a session like this, we could more focus on explaining the challenges ahead and the importance of building on existing (as well as refining and developing new) standards, rather than specifically talking on the details."

I shared we would be pleased to have this presentation - exposing not only other standards beyond DwC, but the process and thinking when looking into the standards needed to support DiSSCo.

Dates, etc., to be decided.
