==========
Minutes: 1/Roll call - quorum achieved 2/Previous minutes accepted – Mat moves, Reinhard seconds 3/Review of comments: a.Reviewed comments and responses to date as summarized by document submitted by Yves. It was suggested that the comments summary document should indicate how an issue was resolved – perhaps add a matrix to the document with resolution details. b additional property: Discussion took place regarding suggestion for extending as per John Corrighan’s comments. No strong opinions were expressed in either direction. It was also suggested that the note extension could be done via use of private namespace extension. However, a number of the group agreed that the suggestion had worth and may be considered if any other changes are made. c.Change ID from type NMTOKEN to string: It was suggested that we change the data type of “ID” from NMTOKEN to string. This suggestion would enable us to use alpha-numerics in the ID. The informal opinion of the group was evenly split, with two strongly against the proposed change and two strongly in favour of the change, and the remainder of the group had no preference. A technical review by John and Doug confirmed that no technical issues resulted with making the proposed change. It was decided to hold off on making a decision until the review is completed, then we will decide which if any changes will be made before XLIFF 1.1 is submitted to the review process. d. Discussion on timing of submission to standards review board: It was suggested that we should first develop profiles before submitting to the OASIS standards review process. This would help prospective implementers and standards reviewers understand exactly how to represent various resource data in XLIFF. It was suggested that at least Java Properties, Win RC, HTML (APS and JSP) profile guides be developed before submission to the standards process. It was suggested that the profiles effort would delay submission of XLIFF 1.1 to the standards review process for at least 3-6 months. It was agreed that the matter would be put to a ballot. 4/XLIFF FAQ – Motion to approve FAQ by John, Seconded by Mat. Tony will contact webmaster at OASIS to have the FAQ posted. 5/It was decided that the best day for the F2F would be Friday, the 12th of Dec. Not clear if we would have a quorum. Will discuss further at next meeting. 6/Regarding scheduled speaking engagements – nothing is presently planned for LISA. Tony will give a talk at the LRC Standards convention in Dublin. A slot could still be available at the LISA conference if anyone is interested in taking it. 7/OASIS membership rules: Tony reminded the TC that OASIS TC membership rules require attendance at 2 of 3 meetings in order to maintain voting membership. The KAVI system shall shortly be modified to automatically determine membership based on attendance – so membership at the discretion of the chair shall no longer be possible. 8/Any other business – none 9/next meeting – Tuesday 30 Sept 2003, 4pm GMT Meeting adjourned.
