Discussed Topics
-----------------
Adoption TC (Mary):

As a results of the Armonk ODF summit, interested parties wanted to form 
an OpenDocument Adoption TC, with a focus on helping to spread adoption 
of OpenDocument
An agenda/charta is currently being drafted and is expected to be ready 
next month
Whoever wants to participate or has further questions should contact Mary.

xml.org focus are for OpenDocument

a Focus Area on OpenDocument on the xml.org is planned and will provide 
public wiki/forum functionality as well as monitored information for 
everyone interested in OpenDocument. This focus area should replace the 
OpenDocument-users mailing list in the long run

There is also the possibility of creating a TC wiki, which is readable 
by the public and only writable by TC members as part of the TC web page.

IPR Mode Transition:
The TC can transition if 50% of its members have signed the new IPR 
statement.
Michael proposes to transition to "RF on limited terms" mode

We want to try to resolve the IPR transition issue ASAP in order to 
clear the way for the work of the soon to be created sub-committees on 
accessibility and formula-language

We will try to vote on the creation of the accessibility SC in the next 
call.
