[ZOO-PSC] Please confirm your interest in ZOO-Project PSC

[Jeff McKenna]

Hi Gérald,

Regarding the OCI API processes support (or the old WPS standard, for 
those unsure of the new terminology yet), the OGC has announced today a 
call for public feedback on the processes draft, until 19 October: 
https://www.ogc.org/pressroom/pressreleases/3298

As you said, this would be a good discussion topic for the new 
ZOO-Project PSC, to outline what our response should be.
