DITA Technical Committee Meeting Minutes: 6 July 2010
Chaired by Don Day <donday@bga.com>
Minutes recorded by Bruce Nevin <bnevin@cisco.com>
The DITA Technical Committee met on Tuesday, 6 July 2010 at 08:00am PT for
47 minutes.
8:00-8:05 Roll call
o Regrets: Su-Laine Yeo, Eliot Kimber, Gershon Joseph
Don will be out of town starting tomorrow. Kris Eberlein will chair next
week's meeting. If shs is unable to
attend, we will defer business until the following week; members may need
to be flexible.
STANDING BUSINESS:
Approve minutes from previous business meeting:
o http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/dita/201007/msg00001.html (29
June Gershon)
Don Moved, Bruce seconded, carried by acclamation.
Subcommittee/liaison reports: (defer for this week due to schedules)
o OASIS DITA for Enterprise Business Documents Subcommittee (Ann
Rockley, Bruce Nevin)
Two areas of focus:
1. Aggregated authoring: white paper near final, will resubmit to
TC soon for review.
2. Metamodel: derived from research into types of documents. At
Michael Priestly's urging, the subteam is
now looking for relevant research in academic literature & trade press for
four use cases:
- Marketing
- RFPs
- Proposals
- Policies & Procedures
Had also looked at other types, such as Prerequisites &
Requirements documents. Chose to leave Pharma use
cases for the Pharma subcommittee. Probably late Fall for a literary
review.
o Help SC will report next week.
Action Items:
o Items closed during past week, what remain are some for Gershon and
an action to tweak OASIS-styled XSL and
CSS files.
BUSINESS:
1. ITEM: Check on schedule: No issues.
2. ITEM: Status of OASIS review of latest CD03 submission
o http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/dita/201006/msg00235.html
(Eberlein)
Not hearing anything from Mary is of some concern, but we felt that
the holiday and other issues may
account for this. Then during the meeting, Don received email from Mary
saying that the OASIS mail server went down
yesterday and sysadmins are away until tomorrow (Wednesday). She gives her
alternate address: marypmcrae@gmail.com.
Action: Don: remind Mary about CDO-3 status.
3. ITEM: Lessons Learned, continued.
Action: Don: start Lessons Learned in the FrontPage. Example topics:
o Review OASIS policies and procedures.
o Dogfood-eating experience (using newest markup).
We will be using the Public Review to further tweak cosmetic issues
as needed.
4. ITEM: Review action items generated by this meeting
- Don: remind Mary about CDO-3 status.
- Don: start Lessons Learned in the FrontPage.
- Gershon: identify items deferred to DITA 1.3, update proposals
table.
- Don: on the FrontPage, clean up reference to the OT as a reference
implementation.
Things that can be accomplished DURING public review (treat as ongoing
checks for now):
1. Tweak OASIS-styled XSL and CSS files
2. Lessons Learned--Consensus to begin this activity after 1.2 is
approved as a spec, but start keeping notes.
3. Scan Wiki pages for review #1, review #2, review #3, and review #4
to identify items deferred to DITA 1.3
o Link with the work plan of items to handle during the public
review
o Discuss in a future meeting with more participants (request per
Gershon)
Action: Gershon: identify wiki items deferred to DITA 1.3.
Ongoing checks:
==============
1. dita.xml.org page on build scripts (Stan)
No updates yet.
2. ITEM: Domain integrator
o DITA DTD Generator
o http://dita-generator.appspot.com/shell
o http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/dita/200907/msg00116.html
(Robert's message with more info)
o OASIS hosting of a Web GUI for this generator?
No new information. Suggest renewing this topic after Public Review is
under way.
3. ITEM: Request for input on DITA 1.2 use:
o Status of DITA OT 1.5 reference implementation of 1.2 features:
o http://dita.xml.org/wiki/plans-for-dita-ot-15
o Note new list below for collecting affirmations of use.
These need to be for specializations as well, e.g. L&T. Members need
to turn in their assessments of their
usage.
Citations of the OT as a reference implementation are incorrect and
misrepresent status of other
implementations e.g. by vendors.
Action: Don: Clean up this reference on the FrontPage.
4. ITEM: Review 1.2 list for items that should be considered for 1.3
o Update the DITA 1.3 list on the Wiki (Gershon)
o Action check: Gershon to add his research into the DITA 1.3
Proposals table.
Action: Don: combine common items here and in above list of items that can
be done during Public Review.
