* ODF-Next Call for Comments draft

The TC approved the draft posted (
http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/office/200902/msg00010.html), with 
the following changes:

1) Apply the two editorial corrections posted by Michael: 
http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/office/200902/msg00120.html

2) Clarify the first sentence, that "next revision" refers to the version 
after ODF 1.2

3) Add a link to the Requirements Wiki Page:  
http://wiki.oasis-open.org/office/Requirements

Rob will work with OASIS to get this call publicized. 

* Status of N1078 Defect Report from SC34

Dennis has transcribed the defects into the Registry of Comments 
spreadsheet and noted several duplicate comments.  He will next examine 
the comments and recommend a disposition for each defect, e.g., whether it 
should be fixed in Errata or whether it should be addressed via other 
means.

* ODF 1.2 draft status

Patrick will be posting an updated draft, hopefully by Wednesday, for the 
TC's consideration for approval as a Committee Draft at next week's TC 
meeting.

* Conformance discussion

TC members commented on what they found acceptable and unacceptable in the 
latest iteration of the draft conformance clause.

There was consensus that two changes should be made to the current draft:

1) Rename the "Host Language" conformance class to "Extended" conformance 
class.
2) Remove the language around table:formula until that question can be 
separately discussed.

Michael will make the above changes.

* Adjourned at 11:12
