Action: ZR to post results from Ottawa
         BR to mimic the output specification by creating shell input 
specifications
         PB to review output specifications and propose which of the 
remaining 2.0 document types can be added though his help and in what priority

Action: BR to post discussion on ideas for workflow and disposition 
of form entry, what would people like to see happen with a UBL 
instance that has been created by a form (e.g. file save, email, db load, etc.)

Agreed that we will include sample implementations in the HISC support package.

BR: What about support of XSLT 2.0?  Should we restrict to 1.0?
GKH: Really only one or two implementations of 2.0 available.
BR: Limit ourselves now to 1.0, but keep in mind what we want to do for 2.0

Zarella to post (see related action items above)

Action BR and PB:  post list of additional document types and their 
respective priorities for implementation, and any discussion items 
regarding input mappings and implementations

GKH has delivered new DocBook XML authoring environment to OASIS but 
it hasn't been mounted yet.

Agreed to produce a ZIP of the HISC deliverables to UBL where shell 
documents are used as placeholders for where we plan to have 
information and that information is not complete.

GKH: we need sample instances of each of the document types

Covered in the discussions above, ZR to undertake packaging issues.
