The metadata project is still considered a work item of the TC. What we have a agreed yesterday was that we put the current meta data proposal on our TC's web site and ask for feedback until December, the 19th. We further agreed to discuss the feedback we receive in the conference call of December, the 19th. There was no decission to continue the meta data work item somewhere outside the OpenDocument TC. > must be done within the OASIS framework. I know the TC has several other very pressing issues to settle (accessibility, DRM, > formulas, etc.) so maybe the decision was made not to undertake this work item? The TC's decission was to postpone the meta data discussion until we have restructured the TC in a way that allows us to discuss the additional topics, that have a higher priority for the moment, and to use the time to get feedback for the proposal. There was no decission to cancel the the meta data work item. I therefore think that the TC is in agreement that the meta data work item will be continued within the TC. Feedback to the TC's work is, as always, welcome.
