8. Face-to-Face meeting
* The Registry TC WILL have a f2f during the XML World conference in New
Orleans on September 23rd-25th.  The GOAL/purpose is to have a V3.0 Spec
ready to vote on upon completion of the f2f.  Therefore, Proposals MUST have
voting completed two weeks prior to arrival.  This means that Aug 1 is the
deadline for first drafts and Aug 23rd is the deadline for final drafts.
* This f2f is FIRM.  You may take these dates to your employers.
9. Other issues/items
V2.1 suggested changes that need TC input:
* "catalogs" to "catalog" - The group decided that "metadata" is plural
therefore it should be "catalog".  Commas inserted for readability are
appropriate.
* "SAML" - The acronym should be spelled out, but due to the location and
nature of the section inclusion
* "federated registries" - due to the nature and location of this section
further information is not required.  It will be elaborated on in v3.0.
Zach Alexander sent out an email that went to the ebtwg, but contained
Registry issues.. Do we need to create a document to be consistent with the
Architecture specification.  Farrukh answered that the Architecture
specification is a guideline not contract.  We don't need to be too
concerned about discrepancies between Architecture specification and the
Registry specification.
