Subject: Re: [office] Continued Lists
Hi, as I raised the initial question, allow me to reply on this. From my side there is no need for a presentation, instead we might want to make the information exchange as short and efficient as possible. Do be able to do so, it would be helpful, if you could create a JIRA issue in advance - clarifying the diff between proposal and spec, checking if further parts did not make it into the spec - so TC members are able to see at one glance, what have to be fixed in an upcoming errata.
