3.3 Embedded Fonts, <http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/oic/201112/msg00004.html>

This already-defined feature has not been implemented and some tests could be done for it.  These could be plugfest tests and also an advisory.  The ODF Toolkit could also be checked for supporting font embedding.  Svante asked for more details.

3.4 Other Deliverables
Dennis mentioned having his eye on the prospects for developing a full-package encryption approach at some point.


4. ODF EVENTS


4.1 ODF Plugfest, April 19-20, 2012, <http://www.odfplugfest.org> 

There was discussion about how to advance the local arrangements.  Hotel arrangements, locations, and evening activities need to be considered.  The event schedule will determine what is convenient for accommodations.

John will see how to have a Microsoft representative on the Plugfest planning calls.

There also needs to be a host for the plugfest calls.  Oracle provided the conference calls previously.  Louis suggested that Microsoft provide the calls for the up-coming plugfest.  John will have it looked into.

There is a desire for more test cases as well as material on embedded fonts, the digital signatures, and the OIC advisories that have test materials.


5. ROUND TABLE
 
  (1) FOSDEM and XML Prague 2012 are coming up quickly.  OSEPA is also too soon to intercept.

  (2) On the Linux Tag, Svante might go -- second week of February.  There is an ODF room.

  (3) OSCON is in Portland, Oregon, in July.  The paper-submission deadline has passed but Louis suggested that worthy proposals might still get in. 

  (4) For staying ahead of future events, the ODF Adoption TC is going to have a calendar.


6. FUTURE MEETING PLANNING

There will be no call on 2012-02-08.  Bart has a conflict.

The next call will be on 2012-02-22.



Respectfully submitted,

  Dennis E. Hamilton, OIC TC Secretary
