4/  "XLIFF 2.0 will be complete when _______" 
  There are two camps for filling in the blank
 
  A. Set a calendar goal. All items that are complete and approved by the 
     TC make it into XLIFF 2.0 - All others need to wait for the "next train," 
     i.e., XLIFF 2.X or XLIFF 3. Special care needs to be taken to define 
     doneness and ensure no dependency issues between items. 
     And "XLIFF 2.0 is complete on set date of *Month/Day/Year*"
          
         - or - 
 
 B. Define a finite set of XLIFF 2.0 items. Set a cutoff date for adding items. 
    The list of accepted items becomes our requirements document.
    And "XLIFF 2.0 is complete when items 1 through X are finished"
    (some in this camp see our current set of goals, as is, as that 
    finite list)

    i. Yves commented that XLIFF is not a software. And we should be careful with releasing versions that do not have some specific features we know will ultimately end up there. (http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/xliff/200904/msg00018.html)

XLIFF and TMX)
(http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/xliff/200904/msg00016.html)


Christian: Need to have time and space to proceed, or we are losing
momentum and opportunities. Need for timelines.

Bryan: Also for work in general (XLIFF 2.0)?

Christian: Personal opinion: just the inline markup.
Email is just examples. Main point is we need timelines.

Bryan: Group good at generating ideas, but less good at finalizing
things. So I'm for it.

Yves: +1.

Christian: anyone thing it would be counter-productive?
None voiced.
Are current steps ok, or too generic?

Christian: Yes, high-level milestones would be fine.

Bryan: Feel like we are on step-2 already. So maybe need to have a
deadline for that step and a milestone for step-3.
Second week of June for end of Step-2.
Yves, Asgeir: sounds good.
Christian: sounds fine.

Step-3 starting first week of July.

David: need scope defined (3.2) first. Or we won't know if requirements
cover the scope.

Bryan: right.

David: 3.2 may need to be more developed.
At what level is the scope? Group? Or source/target?

Bryan: inline affect XLIFF above source/target?

David: Until next meeting for scope (questions).

Bryan: Conclusion of next meeting for closing step-1.

David: For example, all to answer questions listed in scope by next
meeting.

Bryan: Wiki as the "source of truth" for our work. Email thread for
discussion, wiki for the conclusion.
Is that ok with everyone?

Yves: yes. Asgeir: yes, I can also enter data to the wiki if some
prefer.

Asgeir: email for the discussion, then we state the agreed upon
conclusion in the wiki. We can use link to the emails.

David: yes. But make sure not all the burden to maintain the wiki falls
on Asgeir's shoulder.

Asgeir: yes, for people comfortable with it, and cautious about not
overriding other's work. It's a balance to find.

Bryan: make sure also to set comments when committing the changes.

David: Maybe to restrict what changes can be done between the meetings.
For example for now, work only on the scope (add answers).

Asgeir: yes, bullet points for answer, and associated name.
If people more comfortable with email use email.

David: important to use email for notifying new info is being set.

Christian: are we discussing general discussion mechanism here? (not
just inline content).

Asgeir: yes, a way to collaborate in general. Here applied to the inline
content, but we can use this later for the other XLIFF 2.0
parts.

Bryan: yes.
Important to define the scope for example: is text just what in inside
source/target or within group?

Summary from Bryan:
- define methodology for working on inline content, and may be useable
for other parts of 2.0
- "scope" is the target for next meeting.
- people can edit wiki, email as well. Usually: use email for discussion and wiki for conclusion.
- adding sub-bullets (possible answers) to
scope (including pros and cons and name of the proponent) AND adding requirements is allowed between this and next meeting.


4) --- Method to define when XLIFF 2.0 is done.
Tabled for later as Rodolfo is not there.


5) --- XLIFF 2.0 requirements
Not in this meeting.

Bryan: no new business.
Lucia: we can become voting member at the end of second meeting.

Next meeting is third Tuesday of May.

Meeting adjourned.
