    then going directly to IANA.
    
    - the namespace URNs will be changed by replacing "openoffice" with 
    "opendocument", see section 1.3 in the specification
    
    
    "number:denominator" Proposal
    ---------------------------
    The TC members unanimously agreed to include the porposal by David 
    concerning numbering with fixed denominator values, when fractions are 
    used for numbering into the next committee draft.
    
    
    relaxng errors
    --------------
    In case, that the errors reported by xmllint (list//ref constraint) 
    prove to be a real issue, we will replace the refs by using the literal 
    definitions instead at the places in the schema where refs are used now.
    
    
    Writing Style Updates
    ---------------------
    Tom expects to finish up the "you can..."-cleanups today (Nov. 29th)
    
    
    Availability of Specification Drafts
    ------------------------------------
    The TC members unanimously agreed  to make future specification drafts 
    available to the public through the TC page on the OASIS website.
    
    
    Next Community Draft
    --------------------
    We expect to be able to vote on a new community draft after the 
    integration of the changes aggreed to in this meeting. (plus minor 
    corrections that might come up during the week)
    
    
    W3C Compund Document Format
    ---------------------------
    The TC discussed what was known about the W3C CDF working group. Gary 
    will maintain contact to that group, and we will try to work together 
    with the WG where it makes sense.
    The combination of existing standards into a new format is a technique 
    used by this TC, and some alignment on the pratices used in that would 
    be beneficiary for all.
    Gary will maintain contact to the WG.
    
    
    New Action Items:
    -----------------
    Lars: clearify relaxng errors with xmllint
    Gary: maintain contact with CDF group
