    2. Administrivia
        Bill reviewed the Oasis Jira setup, will post url to list.
        Oasis' implementation of Subversion is still in beta. He will also
        set up versions "3.0" and "3.1" and two projects: "core" and
        "profiles" in Jira.
    
    3. Issues
       Advice Obligation Type
        Hal reviewed the Advice proposal posted by Erik. The TC discussed
        the proposal for extending Advice to Not Applicable. Hal and Bill
        raised concerns about the processing model for determining how Not
        Applicable Advices are determined.
    
        The TC discussed the relationship between this Issue and the Must
        Be Present and the Missing Attribute mechanisms currently in place.
        Hal suggested consideration of linking these functionalities. Erik
        offered that this does not fully address the Not Applicable
        proposal. He will post a more detailed proposal.
    
       Subject Inconsistencies
        Rich reviewed the state of the Issue. He raised the concern the
        topic has become unclear and that further clarification is needed.
        He recommends:
         * limiting the subject functionality in multi-profile to be only
           one subject-category allowed to have multiple instances.
         * consider additional future protocol semantics as multi-profile
           pdp-pre-processor capabilities that do not impact policy model
    
      meeting adjourned.
