[AI] Jim will send mail to people who have expressed interest in various possible areas of work for TAG, and work toward finding a focus for the group.

*Discussion*
David is still working on getting a guest speaker from Apple on a TAG call. David noted that Apple has a strong usability focus; they are trying to hide PKI from the users, and even from technical support, which creates some issues.

Most of the call was spent discussing possible non-email applications for electronic signatures. Nathan noted that he's seen sigs used for an application that controls what scheduled drugs an individual is allowed to order. [AI] David will look for information on SAFE-BioPharma applications for electronic signatures. David suggested that non-email sigs are unlikely to take off until there are standards and interoperable products, so instead of asking what people are already doing, we should ask what the potential applications are. Eric suggested workflow as one such potential use.
