Dear Roger, all 16 members,

Thank you very much for the good news!
My pleasure to share this good result with all members worked together 
to make this happen.

For your information, the 16j draft review team has been working to 
clear out the SA-Editor's comments and have our final look at the draft 
for publication.  I would like to thank Ken and all review members for 
their extra effort, as well.

Thank you all again and best regards,

Mitsuo
