Minutes:
Roll call
Present: Asgeir, Erik, Bryan, Rodolfo, Tony, Doug, Milan
Appologies: Andrzej, Magnus
Asgeir moved to approve the previous meeting minyes, Tone seconded and none objected.
	Rodolfo volunteered to act as secretary and continue with the role of editor.
	Doug agreed on being the editor for the XLIFF schemas
	 The must have options for XLIFF 2.0 were discussed: 
o	Magnus & Christian own the first extension, both are absent
o	 Rodolfo will work on an open source tool for validating XLIFF files. It seems that there is no obstacle for starting the work.
o	 A toolkit that includes a set of validation tools and XLIFF filters was discussed and considered a good idea in general. 
o	Christian's request for embedding XML skeletons in XLIFF 2.0 files was considered. It was suggested to add an extension point to the  element, allowing internal and external skeletons and embedded skeleton using a namespace. The extension will be defined as lax in the XLIFF schema.
o	 Asgeir suggested adding the xml:space attribute to the  element. Asgeir will check if the declaration of XML space is enough.
	Should have options:
o	Submitting XLIFF 1.2 to ISO. Peter Reynolds started the initial contacts. Publishing as an ISO standard doesn't mean that OASIS cant publish a free version. Tony will try to make this happen.
o	Rodolfo reported that ICU guide looks good and that it is ready for reformatting. Erik will try to update it and Rodolfo will assist if necessary
	Rodolfo mentioned that PO files have changed their format and the PO guide needs to be updated
	Bryan will check with Mary the status of representation guides, currently marked as "Draft"
	Erik recommended checking support for "choice formats" as used by ICU and Java .properties in XLIFF 2.0. Erik will draft the requirements.
	Bryan will check with Magnus how to merge two segments using current XLIFF infrastructure
	 Rodolfo mentioned that SRX 2.0 was approved by LISA.
	Bryan asked if the frequency of meetings is OK and asked for feedback on a way to improve results and enhance productivity
