7.  Publisher's and eLearning subcommittee reports

Scott reported that they have received no comments on the Draft 1.1
version of the Publisher's schema.  There were four changes to 1.1:

- epigraph now allows poetry
- admonitions are restored
- table accessiblity
- added stage direction markup

Nancy and Dick commented that it looks good.
Scott points out that because it is an extension of
DocBook 5.1, it should not be released as a standard
before 5.1.  He suggested that it be processed through
OASIS at the same time as 5.1.  Bob will discuss
the process with Norm.

8.  Transclusion in DocBook

Continued.

9.  DocBook 5.1 release

Continued.

10. DocBook 4-to-5 conversion stylesheet issues

a.  drops @class attribute from <productname/>?
b.  markup removed from <remark>?
c.  all <title>s moved to <info>?

The TC felt that these conversions did not align
with the DocBook 5 schema and should be changed.

ACTION: Dick to fix the conversion stylesheet on SourceForge.
ACTION: Bob to review Dick's changes.
