Dear all,

I would like to re-start the OM3 process -- I apologize for dropping the
ball on this. But if we start now, we can have something to report until
the OpenMath workshop in Coimbra. Could you please tell me if you are
still interested in contributing to the process?

The situation below is still accurate (including the OM3 mailing list).
So, let's restart this.
