Agenda: 1/ Roll call 2/ Approve previous meeting minutes: Accept, reject, or amend. (http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/xliff/200903/msg00032.html) Note: In an effort to be precise, I'm trying a new simplified agenda approach. Our other issues are still important. I will add them back as we finish these. 3/ Common Requirments for elements between TMX and XLIFF (public review period for TMX 2.0 end on April 10) (http://wiki.oasis-open.org/xliff/OneContentModel/Requirements?action=show&redirect=Requirements) A. Adding an adjacent item not included in the list on the wiki page: issues around SUB (http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/xliff/200904/msg00005.html) 4/ Conformance clause (http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/process.php#specQuality) A. XLIFF 1.2.1 B. XLIFF 2.0 5/ "XLIFF 2.0 will be complete when _______" There are two camps for filling in the blank A. Set a calendar goal. All items that are complete and approved by the TC make it into XLIFF 2.0 - All others need to wait for the "next train," i.e., XLIFF 2.X or XLIFF 3. Special care needs to be taken to define doneness and ensure no dependency issues between items. And "XLIFF 2.0 is complete on set date of *Month/Day/Year*" - or - B. Define a finite set of XLIFF 2.0 items. Set a cutoff date for adding items. The list of accepted items becomes our requirements document. And "XLIFF 2.0 is complete when items 1 through X are finished" (some in this camp see our current set of goals, as is, as that finite list) 6/ XLIFF 2.0 (http://wiki.oasis-open.org/xliff/XLIFF2.0/FeatureTracking)

Minutes: Present: Yves Savourel, Bryan Schanabel, Doug Domeny, Asgeir Frimannsson, Rodolfo Raya, Tony Jewtushenko, Magnus Martikainen, David Filip. Regrets: Christian Lieske, Arle Lommel. Tony moved to accept previous minutes, Rodolfo seconded, none opposed. Bryan explained the changes in the agenda and they were accepted. Bryan presented a summary of ideas related to sharing inline markup with TMX 2.0. The deadline for providing input to OSCAR is April 10, so the feedback from this TC could be late. The reasons for having an element like that contains sub-flows were discussed and different points of view were analyzed. Yves suggested thinking in terms of requirements instead of markup and his idea was accepted. Discussing in terms of requirements could be extended to all items for inline content listed in the wiki. Tony suggested focusing in the requirements for version 2.0, leaving XLIFF 1.2 behind. Requirements discussion may continue by email. Yves suggested that each TC member review the items currently posted in the wiki and send comments to the list. Yves will adjust the content of the wiki to facilitate discussions. Bryan suggested that we may need a set of rules for maintaining the wiki. Asgeir said that comments could be added to the wiki and requested that members put their names and dates in the text and notify the TC by email. Next teleconference will be in two weeks. Call dismissed.
