Article by Evan Koblentz posted on LTN website.

There is a scheduled Judicial subconference comittee meeting on Septemeber 9th involving select attorneys, committee members, and eDiscovery experts to discuss the possible need to revise the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, to supplement the rule changes that went into effect in 2006. 

The article points out some of the areas that will be discussed, that could be the target of additiona revisions.  The article quotes former Magistarte Judge Ronald Hedges, whom wisely states that he feels that changes are not neccessary at this time.  This blogger fully agrees with the quotes made attributed to Ronald Hedges.

It should be an interesting meeting on September 9th, and if there are proposed changes, as the author of the article points out, there are no changes likely to be approved until at least 2013.
