Therefore it's a non-issue for the TC. What is the action item here? If it's an issue at all, I'm unclear on how it is a non-issue for the TC. It might not be something we need to address in the 1.1 spec, but if it's an issue, the TC needs to address it, and there needs to be an action item. > > 4. ITEM: Versioning of DITA public identifiers > * http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/dita/200610/msg00025.html > > Paul G: Version and non-version specific versions of DTDs, with > catalog used to locate the correct DTD. > > Robert: TC needs to declare the public IDs to be used. > > DECISION: Robert moves to change DITA version attribute from text to > data and to define version-specific IDs in the catalog. Scott > seconds. No objections. Clarification to the minutes: Instead of "from text to data", we are removing the "#FIXED" indication from the (already CDATA) DITAArchVersion attribute. More precisely, I'd phrase the decision as follows: DECISION: Robert moves to remove the "#FIXED" indication from the DITAArchVersion attribute and to include version-specific FPIs (formal public identifiers) in the catalog. Scott seconds. No objections. > > 8.

We need to make our > decision shortly. We'll have extended discussion next meeting. I object to having an extended discussion of this during the telcon. I would much prefer to spend TC telcon time working on the technical DITA 1.1 issues. I would like to propose (and I will so move at the beginning of the telcon) that we open the IPR transition issue by asking if there are any objections to going with OASIS' standard RF option (as the DocBook TC and others have done). If there are objections, those objecting can start an email discussion about it. If there are no objections, we can task someone (Don?) to draft the necessary documents offline, and then we can vote on them. There is nothing I'd like to avoid more than wasting telcon time talking about IP issues. paul
