Dear SC 22 Convenors,

I would like to bring the attached call for liaisons to your attention. 
I would appreciate it if you would mention it within your groups.

In the past, work on quantum computing has taken place within JTC 1, 
where it was easier for me to monitor what was happening in case 
programming languages needed to know about it. However, that work is now 
being moved to a new IEC/ISO JTC 3 Quantum Technologies (note IEC is 
taking the lead there, so their initials come first). Now it will be 
more difficult for programming languages to get information about what 
is happening with quantum computing unless we establish an explicit 
liaison with them.

Although I have called on national bodies to nominate liaisons, it is 
likely that the required expertise will be inside a working group, so I 
would appreciate it if you would ask anyone who might be interested to 
contact their national bodies about becoming the liaison.

David

P.S. WG 4 is between convenors at the moment, so I have copied Jeff 
Shimoda who is being nominated as the next WG 4 convenor.
