    Hi all,
    

    
    
    I've started a mailing list for discussing the PFIF standard.
       I've received several good suggestions for improvement and would
      like to propose some incremental changes for the next version of
      PFIF.
    
    

    
    
    I welcome your input.  In particular, if you build systems that
      export, import, or otherwise work with PFIF, please join.  The
      mailing list will be the best way to anticipate and influence
      changes to PFIF so we can all keep our systems working together
      well.
    
    

    
    
    

    
    
    Thanks!

    Wonder if they are even aware of similar work and 
encodings from the IETF and NENA? or NIEM? Or they Chilean earthquake people 
finder app: http://www.chilepersonfinder.appspot.com/. 
Or people finder.org (http://www.peoplefinder101.org/Terms.html) 
or the State dept people finder app for Haiti?
    

     
    

    I could not tell from their website what research 
they had done.
    

     
    

    Not that such an encoding is not needed. An 
opportunity to coordinate and collaborate perhaps?

    I'm not sure if they're aware of NENA or NIEM.

PFIF is led by Ka-Ping Yee from Google, and of course Google is responsible for hosting the people finder apps such as the Chile one below. The Sahana Software Foundation has also been coordinating with them for a while, as we've been able to consume PFIF and import those records into Sahana Eden.

TEC gets into info sharing and tracking of all evacuation victims, lost person finding, family reunification, regulation (logistics-oriented) and a couple other functional areas.  We have all the info from NIH/NLH – google adopted; people finder, Haiti usage etc.

I agree. I've signed up to the PFIF list and have already said as much. I'd probably encourage others that are interested in TEC to also consider signing up as there will not doubt be some useful discussions to be had, and long term I'd hope to see PFIF merge into TEC so we don't have a proliferation of competing standards.

Cheers Gavin
