<p>Greetings from snowy New York,<br>
</p>
<p>We had a very productive meeting last week in Los Angeles where
the sun seemed to be shining 24/7.</p>
<p>The attached slides explain the details but the highlights
include:<br>
</p>
<ul>
<li>Resolution of more than 200 comments on the Digital Twin
Framework for manufacturing (new title)</li>
<li>Tentative agreement from France and Japan to vote yes for QIF</li>
<li>Review of AP238 e2 DIS which has now been used to machine more
than one million parts</li>
<li>Digital twin demonstration of four robots performing drill and
fill operations</li>
</ul>
<p>We are here to help if anybody needs assistance reviewing these
important standards for the next generation of digital
manufacturing.</p>
