4. SC Status

Metadata
(patrick) started writing requirements for usescases. nearing final set
of reqs for bib use-cases from bruce
we needed to switch meeting time due to bruce's teaching commitments
adding enhanced searching and collaborative editing

Formula
(david) we got comments on the syntax, walk through those, thanks
reposted comments on SC list
will write responses
have weekly updates as folks work the various functions
lots of misinformation about ODF and open formula
hence rob and I have build wiki page with content setting things right

5. Comments for ODF 1.1

links to comments on wiki page

soft page breaks comment from Malte,
current text says "specifies whether doc contains page breaks" should
read "contains soft page breaks"
(michael) anyone thinks this is substantial change?
personally don't think so,
(lars)it's a clarification of what we meant when we came up with the
proposal
- no objection -
RESOLUTION: change this after review. not a substantial page

(michael) ... provides facility to torn on/off page breaks is not clear
whether this is regarding to import and export. proposal is to add
"export of"  to clarify
(michael) any objections to change this as requested as a
non-substantial change?
-no objection -
RESOLUTION: edit the specification accordingly.

(michael) comments from daniel carrera regarding change tracking
1. typo math<->match is editorial.

2. example is wrong. in the third example, the result contains a text:h
where it should say text:p
any objection correcting this as unsubstantial change?
- no objections -
RESOLUTION: correct example for change tracking as unsubstantial channge

3. another error in example, similar to previous. deletion contains
text:p, but result after rejection contains text:h
either change deletion or change result
propose to change the deletion part of the example to be consistent with
what the example says should be the result after the rejection.
- no objection -
RESOLUTION: fix example

4. description of deletion element. if text is removed, it is wrapped
into text:p or text:h elements. p.80 describes to insert the deletion at
the position of a delete-mark as if start/end tags were missing ... ???

end tag must be adepted to start tag
not sure that if we change this it would be unsubstantial
should be obvious once one tries to implement
(lars) anyone thins that this is substantial
(david) I'd think it's an errata. did anyone implement it that way
(lars) I agree
(david) anyone objecting calling this an erratum (editorial change)
- no objection -
RESOLUTION: note an erratum and correct the specification (editorial change)

(michael) no more comments so far
and last agenda item
patrick, is there an update on the disposition report
(patrick) it has been submitted to ISO
will be sent out for publication when disposition ballot is done

(michael) any other topics
(david) I'd like to repeat my plea for people to help with function
description
(michael) did more people join
(david) yes, and we are making progress, e.g. complex number functions
