Review of open action items
a. Extension for synopsis elements
(Issue #111)
Need ALL to test before we can have a proposal to vote on. Larry has tested. No issues. Requester is already using in a local variant. Larry thinks it's in good shape. Need someone that is really
good at schema to test (Jirka?). ACTION: Jirka to update schemas CONTINUED.
Regarding new synopsis element:
Bob
will ask Jirka to document and test the schema
Larry
says the Definitive Guide will need to be updated to document the schema extensions, which will require some expertise.
Bob
suggests that perhaps we could ask Norm to update the Definitive Guide.
Larry
offered to collaborate with Norm or whomever will work on this and to draft useful descriptions of the multiple programing constructs (the C++ vs. python extensions for example)
No
timeline was determined for either Jirka or Norm's efforts
b. Bob to request schema change to Jirka/Norm
to add the fix for 112 refentry in sect 1 CONTINUED.
c. Bob to discuss with Jirka to create a beta with DocBook Library (
https://github.com/docbook/docbook/issues/111 ) models.
CONTINUED.
d. Scott to discuss with Jirka to create a beta of DocBook Publishers v1.1 (based on 5.2), which includes the accepted additions/changes ( Issues 99, 86, 85, 84, 82,
81) CONTINUED.
e. Bob to open discussion for section classes on the mailing list.
f. Scott to also request input on section classes to social media.

7. Social media presence for DocBook
Purpose: To raise awareness of actions (votes, calls for information, etc.)
8. Remaining items for v5.2 Committee Spec
a. DocBook for Publishers v1.1, want
to see this through completion.
1. Add
Issues 99, 86, 85, 84, 82, 81 schema and formalize the release.
QUESTION: Versioning the DocBook and Publishers schemas is tricky. Previously,
they ve diverged, which makes it very difficult to tell which base version of DocBook they customize.
Maybe go with the same version as DocBook? Can we change to a matching version number under OASIS process?
b. Library proposal should be included.
1. Include
by default.
