2. STATUS OF ACTION ITEMS

  #0015 Template Scenarios.  Work in progress.
Dennis is reorganizing his work.
  
  #0041 Battery of ODF 1.2 Assessment Documents.  No report.

  #0044 Split up Advisory 00002.  Work in progress.
Dennis is thinking of improving the advisory, initially without splitting up the advisory.
  
  #0046 Update Advisory 00007. Done. This action item will be closed.

  #0047 Confirmation of Advisory 00008 test documents. Work in Progress.
Bart would like to test the signature interoperability between e.g  Fedict's eID applet and the ODF toolkit.
Dennis mentions that there are only a few people left working on the ODF Toolkit.
It is not clear if the ODF Toolkit code-base fully supports digital signatures. 

  #0051 Check advisory 00005. Work in progress.


3. DELIVERABLES / TEST CASES

3.1 Second "State of Interoperability" Report

Bart has uploaded a new draft version of the 2nd State of Interoperability report.
It provides more guidance and has more links to OIC TC Advisories.
Feedback is still welcome.

3.2 Other Interop Advisories

No new advisories.
Dennis has been working on updating Advisories, see the Action Item list.



4. ROUND TABLE

4.1 Chairing the TC

Bart announces that, due to recent budget cuts, Fedict will not renew its OASIS membership in December.
Budget constraints aside, Bart is also working on several other projects, leaving not much time for ODF-related tasks.
This implies that Bart will no longer be able to participate in the TCs, and that the OIC TC needs a new Chair person.


4.2 Liaison to ISO/IEC JTC1/SC34 WG4

Dennis has been elected as the OIC TC Liaison to ISO/IEC JTC1/SC34 WG 4.
The OIC TC home page has been updated accordingly, and OASIS staff has been informed.


4.3 ODF interop events

Dennis thinks that OSCON might be interesting, but ODF interoperability is probably too specific for that event.
On a related note, participating in an ApacheCon event is a bit expensive for individuals / small companies.

Bart mentions that, although a few organizations have shown interest, there is still no location for a new plugfest.



5. FUTURE MEETING PLANNING

The next call will be on Wednesday May 29th, starting at 13:30 UTC.
