* ODF-Next Call for Comments draft
The TC approved the draft posted (
http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/office/200902/msg00010.html), with
the following changes:
1) Apply the two editorial corrections posted by Michael:
http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/office/200902/msg00120.html
2) Clarify the first sentence, that "next revision" refers to the version
after ODF 1.2
3) Add a link to the Requirements Wiki Page:
http://wiki.oasis-open.org/office/Requirements
Rob will work with OASIS to get this call publicized.
* Status of N1078 Defect Report from SC34
Dennis has transcribed the defects into the Registry of Comments
spreadsheet and noted several duplicate comments. He will next examine
the comments and recommend a disposition for each defect, e.g., whether it
should be fixed in Errata or whether it should be addressed via other
means.
* ODF 1.2 draft status
Patrick will be posting an updated draft, hopefully by Wednesday, for the
TC's consideration for approval as a Committee Draft at next week's TC
meeting.
* Conformance discussion
TC members commented on what they found acceptable and unacceptable in the
latest iteration of the draft conformance clause.
There was consensus that two changes should be made to the current draft:
1) Rename the "Host Language" conformance class to "Extended" conformance
class.
2) Remove the language around table:formula until that question can be
separately discussed.
Michael will make the above changes.
* Adjourned at 11:12
