* November 30th deadline for "must have" proposals

Discussion of ODF 1.2 "endgame" activities.  The chairs stated that, for 
planning purposes, it is desired that we have a fuller understanding of 
what remaining proposals will be made for ODF 1.2, and which of those 
proposals are considered essential.

TC members unanimously agreed to the following principles:

1) For existing, open ODF 1.2 proposals, if a TC member feels that the 
proposal is a "must have" item for ODF 1.2, then he should add a link to 
it on the wiki here: 
http://wiki.oasis-open.org/office/OpenDocument_v1.2_tasks

2) If their are remaining features which TC members feel must be in ODF 
1.2, but which are not yet entered as formal proposals, then the member 
should enter a new proposal according to the instructions here: 
http://wiki.oasis-open.org/office/How_to_propose_a_change_or_addition_to_ODF 
and then indicate it is a must have item by adding it to the table 
according to #1, above.

TC members are asked to complete both items above November 30th 2008.


* Second ODF 1.0 Errata Document

Dennis and Patrick will present on this topic at a future meeting.


* User-defined Paragraph discussion

The TC agreed to skip over this agenda item, since David Faure was not
