Here is what they contain: ------------------------------------------------------- OASIS DITA Adoption Committee Minutes Monday, 1 December 2008 ------------------------------------------------------- Minutes recorded by Kristen James Eberlein. 1. ROLL CALL Quorum is present. 2. MINUTES FROM PREVIOUS BUSINESS MEETING * http://www.oasis-open.org/apps/org/workgroup/dita-adoption/email/archives/200811/msg00030.html Motion made to approve minutes; seconded by David Hollis; approved by acclamation. 3. SCHEDULE FOR UPCOMING HOLIDAY WEEKS The DITA Adoption Committee will meet on the following dates: * 8 December * 15 December * 5 January The committee will not meet on December 22 and 29. 4. CATEGORIES FOR FILES ON THE OASIS SITE * http://www.oasis-open.org/apps/org/workgroup/dita-adoption/documents.php Currently, only the default Kavi categories are available: Calendar Documents, Meeting Notes, and Standards. Discussion ensued about whether documents were available for the public to read. Don Day clarified that documents become the intellectual property of OASIS, and that the default setting is for documents to be available for the public to view. Don and Gershon provided additional clarification that the standards process is designed to be open. Action: Gershon will propose additional categories for the site, and he will post them to the list serve for feedback. 5. DITA 1.2 REVIEW ASSIGNMENTS * http://wiki.oasis-open.org/dita/Draft_DITA_1.2_Specification_Review_Assignments The DITA TC tracks information about the DITA 1.2 reviews on a Wiki page that only members of the DITA TC can edit. We need to devise a process to ensure that the work of Adoption Committee members is accurately logged on this page. Action: Committee members who have sent Robert Anderson comments about the DITA 1.2 Language Specification, let Gershon know. He will update the review assignments page on the DITA TC Wiki. 6. SIGN-UP SHEET FOR WRITING TOPICS ABOUT DITA 1.2 FEATUREs * http://wiki.oasis-open.org/dita-adoption/SignUp Kris Eberlein has added a sign-up sheet for Adoption Committee members who are willing to write a user-friendly topic about a DITA 1.2 feature. She added the names of people who volunteered at last week's meeting. Action: Adoption TC members need to review the list and make sure that it is correct. They should sign up if they have not already done so (and have the time and inclination to do this work). 7.

CALL FOR USERS OASIS needs a list of companies or organizations that intend to use one or more DITA 1.2 features, such as the new image scale-to-fit feature. OASIS plans to make this list public before or around the time of the DITA 1.2 release. Don Day suggested that the Adoption Committee keep a running list and have it be part of the regular agenda. Action: Kris will create a Wiki page for Adoption TC; Gershon will create the Wiki page for the DITA TC. The two pages will reference each other.
