OASIS DocBook TC2

  • 1.  Regrets for 25 May

    Posted 05-25-2016 12:29
    To my great dismay (not least of all because I was never notified and only just happened to discover accidentally that), American Airlines has foisted a schedule change upon me. Instead of departing today at 4p, I will be leaving at 2p. I will try to get to the airport in time to do the DocBook TC telcon From there, but I am at risk. Here’s my statement of use: Norman Walsh has successfully used the DocBook Version 5.1 Committee Specification 01, approved 11 November 2015 (described in http://docs.oasis-open.org/docbook/docbook/v5.1/docbook-v5.1.pdf ) in accordance with section 1.ar of the Technical Committee Process. The implementation includes all standard features; it interoperates on multiple systems. I have documents that make particular use many features added in 5.1, including: givenname, multimediaparam, result, and topic. I have done some work with assemblies. If someone else can take the action to collect our SOUs together and forward them to Chet, I would appreciate it. I’m on the road for the next three-ish weeks. Be seeing you, norm P.S. Not for the first time, I begin to feel that I am doing more harm than good on this TC. :-( Apologies again. -- Norman Walsh <ndw@nwalsh.com> Men are more like the times they http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/ live in than they are like their Chair, DocBook Technical Committee fathers.--Ali Ibn-abi-talib Attachment: signature.asc Description: PGP signature

    I will go ahead and host the call, so Norm can just call in as a regular attendee if he can. We'll discuss the SOU situation.
