They expect to have both proposals ready for Stage 2 vote by August, as per the current 1.3 deadlines.

> Eliot gave an overview; this will be a new specialization of @props to give a delivery target; his name for the new @ is @deliveryTarget, but he's not invested in that name. Then @print would be deprecated but still exist.
> - MarkM; we publish to various 'deliverymethods', e.g. 'instructor notes' and 'student notes'. Is this the same kind of thing?
> - Eliot; Not exactly, this is about delivery formats, e.g. PDF, HTML5, epub3, rather than types of content.
> - Kris; Eliot, you're suggesting that values be defined in a subject scheme map. That would mean we would possibly be shipping a non-normative subject scheme with 1.3. We don't usually do that kind of thing.
> - Robert; Actually, I think with 1.2, Erik Hennum proposed exactly that. He didn't put the materials together, so we didn't, but that was part of the plan.
> - Eliot; since the list of likely output types is pretty well known, it seems useful to suggest the way to use this.
> - Kris; This opens up issues about how we define this in the spec.
> - Eliot; My thought would be to do it as a completely non-normative appendix; not part of normative content.
> - Kris; We'll need to hash this out in the stage 3 proposal
> - Robert; Would values be mentioned in mormative part?
> - Eliot; I'd think we'd at least mention the most obvious ones, like PDF or HTML.
> - Robert; I think people would be looking for that, to see how this rlates to what they're already doing.
> - Eliot; For example, the subject scheme might have a top-level 'print' with subordinate forms like PDF, indesign, openofffice, etc.
> - Robert; Does anyone else have thoughts over whether to have recommended tokens rather than examples?
> Kris and MichaelP both expressed internal conflict about the need to provide more useful information to users, but without including specific non-normative content in the spec.
> - Robert; We want to have some recommended options, in that it would make it more likely that vendors would use the same names for the same outputs.
> - Eliot; As a counter to that perspective; this will be a normal select @, so you'd normally control it with a DITAVAL
> - Robert; I don't want users to have to set up a new DITAVAL rule, where they now just use @print="no"
> - Eliot; We'll need to consider that use case; currently it's not in the proposal.
> - Robert; if you set deliverytype="epub", then a processor needs to know not to include the topic when it goes to PDF.
> - Don; do we need synonyms for @s in a DITAVAL?
> - MichaelP: We may need to recommend high-level buckets like 'print', and then give a couple of examples - not recommendations - of lower level options.
> - Kris; Eliot, is that how your proposal works?
> - Eliot; Yes, but it doesn't give the same level of processing direction as MichaelP is suggesting.
> - Kris; This proposal will probably need a couple of adoption white papers to go with it.
> Resolution; TC will vote on proposal next week.
