Subject: XRI 1.0 Release Candidate 2 Underway


XRI TC Members:

Per the email of last week, we were planning a call tomorrow for a final
discussion of the 1.0 spec and a decision about going to a vote.

However we received two key pieces of feedback about RC1: a) it would
benefit from a brief discussion about the canonical form of an XRI, and
b) Appendix B (the $ space) should be broken out into a separate
specification for two reasons - 1) the uses of each branch of the $ tree
should be explained in more detail, and 2) the $ space is likely to
evolve quickly over the next year and thus will need revision more
frequently than the main spec.

The Editors discussed both topics at length and agreed with both
suggestions. Canonical form text has already been drafted and is
undergoing review on the Editor's SC list. Appendix B will be split out
into a separate (short) spec tentatively titled the XRI Metadata
Specification. We will make it another deliverable of the XRI TC in the
January time frame. 

Because it will take until next Monday for the Editors to make and
review all the changes, we are postponing the planned call and
go-to-vote decision one week until next Thursday, Nov. 20th. The Editors
are scheduling a final review call for next Monday afternoon and will
post RC2 either late Monday or Tuesday morning. Since it will be
substantially identical in content to RC1 with the exception of these
two items, we believe it should be ready for a vote next Thursday.

If you have feedback on RC1 but have not submitted it, please send it in
ASAP so it can be incorporated into RC2.

We will send details of next Thursday's call at the time RC2 is posted.

Subject: [xri] Reviewing XRI 1.0 Release Candidate 1

XRI TC Members:

The Editor's SC met yesterday and closed all issues with the exception
of a few remaining comments noted in the text and proofing tasks related
to the final production. We strongly encourage all TC members to begin
reviewing RC1 immediately (link in the message below) and submit any
issues or feedback, no matter how minor, to the TC list ASAP (and no
later than next Wednesday, 11/12.)

We will then post RC2 and hold a general TC call for all members next
Thursday, 11/13, at 3pm PT (details to be posted), to determine
consensus about going to a vote.
