    / "Bob Stayton" <bobs@sagehill.net> was heard to say:
    | 8.  DocBook namespaces.
    |
    | A DocBook namespace is needed for version 5.  We want a stable,
    | nonchanging name.  The Committee agreed that
    | it would apply to the family of DocBook
    | schemas, including Simplified DocBook and customizations.
    | The name would not contain a version number.
    |
    | The OASIS naming rules are not yet adopted, so Norm proposed
    | using "http://docbook.org/ns/docbook"; as the namespace name.
    | There is some precedent for using a non-OASIS URI.
    
    I recall calling the question:
    
      Shall we adopt "http://docbook.org/ns/docbook"; as the namespace name
      for DocBook V5.0
    
    and obtaining uninimous consent, but that is not clearly reflected in
    these minutes. Bob, could you please make a note for next month's
    agenda that when we adopt these minutes, we mean to adopt them as
    amended above. (If, in fact, the committee as a whole shares my
    personal recollection.)
    
                                            Be seeing you,
                                              norm

    Norman Walsh <ndw@nwalsh.com>      | Everything should be made as
    http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/ | simple as possible, but no simpler.
