| Jesse Berst in a SmartGrid News feature article says:
" Until recently, electric power was proceeding down the standards path very, very slowly. That changed with the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA or “stimulus bill”), which mandated the rapid development of standards and (more importantly) provided funding to make it happen. As a result, at least half a dozen organizations are racing to get standards in place. They want them locked down in time to influence the choice of technologies for Smart Grid stimulus projects.
As a result, the normal timeline will be greatly compressed. Standards will show up in months that might otherwise have taken years."

Arnold couldn't be with us this year, but sent out the following announcement.
Colleagues, To mark the CIMUG meeting in Genval I have released CIMTool 1.5.5. The all-in-one eclipse+java+ cimtool distribution has been refreshed, which is handy for new users or those wanting to "kick the tires". For existing users eclipse update can be used. Read all the details at http://wiki.cimtool.org/ChangeLog.html and find your preferred method of download at http://wiki.cimtool.org/Download.htmlRegards, -- Arnold deVos Langdale Consultants |
| We posted a Google map to show the route from the the train station to the hotel. However, walking is not recommended if you have luggage.
This is a residential area, some sidewalks are narrow, and with the hills around the lake it is steep in areas along the Google-calculated path. If you call the hotel at +32 2 655 71 11, they will arrange for a taxi or shuttle to meet you at the train station.
But if you have no luggage to pull along, this is a pleasant walk. Rather than take the Google-mapped path, you might rather follow Rue de Rosieres to Avenue du Lac to the lake and take the walking path. It's a pleasant stroll - and the weather has been nice too. |

A quick check shows that 21 of the currently registered 60 attendees do not have a CIM Users Group site account. Often this occurs when an administrative assistant or colleague registers on your behalf. Or you may be entirely new to the CIM Users Group. (Welcome!)
A site account is not required, but is recommended. We do require a login for some interactive parts of this conference site (including the evaluation survey). You'll know when you're prompted for a username and password.
If you do not have a Username and Password, please return to the CIM Users Group site home page to create a Guest account at no charge. I can then grant you access to the interactive features of this site.
In the case that you later upgrade to individual or corporate membership, your account will be upgraded accordingly.
Note: when you create an account, the email address you provide will be used to contact you - e.g. for password retrieval. A business email address is recommended. We do take pains to protect your email address from web crawlers.
Thanks,

| So - I'm cleared for takeoff on Sunday morning, unless the World Health Organization steps in at the last minute. ;-)
I hope everyone else is looking forward to this event also.
Please see the discussion list for some topics I'd like to see discussed in the hallways or somewhere in the agenda.
Please add anything else that comes to mind, and that will help us all make the best use of our time.
See you soon,
Randy |
