    Accessibility (Michael)
    F2F meeting week of May 21
    there is a proposal for description/titles on drawing objects, comments 
    will be addressed at F2F
    ongoing discussion on tables in presentations
    (Florian) currently two options are evaluated:
    a) include tables directly in presentation schema
    b) use embedded spreadsheet tables
    (Yue Ma)  what about storing table data for group of shapes elsewere
    (Florian) also consiidered, but design has problems
    continue discussion on tables via mailing list...

    TC Discussion
    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
    ISO ballot
    (Patrick) passed with no negative votes. Not sure yet, whether there 
    will be a ballot resolution meeting.
    We need to work out how to address the comments
    Right now I am working on getting more detailed information from the 
    national bodies that had comments attached to their vote...
    We should start on getting answers for comments (e.g. BiDi)
    (Michael) we should have a coordination call next week too, in order to 
    decide on comments. Try to address comments on the ML until
      then, it looks like all they need is already in OpenDocument/Unicode. 
    Will clarify
    ACTION: Michael to work on BiDi comments
    
    Roadmap
    (michael) anyone disagreeing to the proposal on the ML?
    (patrick) question: if we can solve all of the erratas for iso we should 
    get that sooner
    (michael) errata comments from iso go into errata document
    once that doc is completed, an additional speciification eg 1.0.1 is 
    created with those errata
    (patrick) what I am proposing is, the document that we are giving to iso 
    has to say how the comments were resolved. this is than published as the 
    iso version
    since A11Y came up in a comment, this should maybe be dealt with.
    what I am leaning to is, that we should have a version which is an OASIS 
    specifcation as well as an ISO specification, so that the two are in 
    sync. not sure whether we will get the oasis 15 day rule on A11Y
    (michael) would like to keep A11Y and errata seperate
    (lars) there is A11Y in comments, what role do we play in ballot 
    resolutionopinion for comments?
    (patrickj) oasis will look at TC for answers on comments
    we should wait until we know more about the status of A11Y
    we may have to revisit the revision numbering
    (michael) we should now process comments we received
    we should deciide on how to proceed, when our responses are clear
    (lars) there should be one version, that is in sync at ISO and OASIS
    (michael) any objections to the roadmap proposal?
    - no objections -
    
    face 2 face june/july
    (michael) topics would be A11Y changes
    not clear whether F2F is required
    I do not expect that a F2F is necessary for those
    not sure about ISO comments (need to discuss those at F2F)
    (patrick) we probably need to wait until end of may
    we likely have more material when input from formula and metadata SC 
    output is available
    (michael) proposal would be to decide end of may on whether a summer f2f 
    is needed
    schedule for end of july, but expect it not to happen
    final decision end of may
    - no objections -
