Chris Kreiler, as the PLCS TC Secretariat, took the minutes of the meeting.
Welcome to Steve Foster attending the meeting as a representative from LSC
Regrets received from Nigel Walker (Rolls-Royce), Rob Bodington (EuroStep) and Leif Gyllstrm (FMV contractor).
It was proposed that the PLCS TC should take advantage of the new OASIS membership structure as soon as it is published, which would allow experts to participate in individual DEX teams without the overhead of maintaining full membership of the TC through attendance. This would also allow the TC to go down to organizational membership for voting.
3. Presentation of status against plan
Review of overall progress against milestones - Secretariat
No additional feedback or commitments to the resource matrix received since last meeting
4. Report of PLCS AP239 Ballot Comment Resolution Meetings
Current status of ballot comment resolutions (Nigel Shaw)
Seven implementation modules still outstanding. Modules will be delivered to ISO in January 2005
Feedback from ISO is biggest undefined workload variable. Very limited feedback so far. Chair commented that he did not expect many comments from ISO during their review process.
Estimate 5 to 10 days, maximum of 15 days of work remaining depending on number of comments received
FMV has requested additional selects to be extended - some of these could be accommodated in the existing workload
Convenor process going smoothly
Well done to modellers for getting all the Ballot Comments addressed and the foundation modules out the door. The delivery had made a big impact in ISO, with a commendation from the Secretary-General.
Once we have Long Form for AP439, we can compare the EXPRESS to see which entities have changed for DEXs
Action 12/1: Provide list of changes to modules (Modelling Team).
5. Feedback from Pilots and Implementations
Review recent pilot activities. Feedback from Pilots on PLCS success stories. Tangible business benefits. Issues

Going according to plan
Approximately 50% of project complete
