One comment and question about the minutes...

[[[
Sub-string hotspot identification
Response from US S1000D graphics subproject indicated that the defect 
resolution to the CGM standard is the correct approach and would solve the 
issue.
Discussion:  Defect to the standard clears the way to 
implementation.   Will this require an erratum to WebCGM 2.0?
]]]

Is it our intention to retroactively recognize sub-string hotspotting in 
2.0?  Or do we mean it to be new in 2.1?  The first might require an 
erratum to 2.0, the second (possibly) might require broadening the 2.0 
content rules for 2.1.

It is actually more subtle than that.  The way that ISO defect corrections 
work is that they are considered to apply as of the publication date of the 
standard.  I.e., when the sub-string APS tagging defect correction is 
approved, then that is considered to always have been a part of the 
conformance landscape of CGM:1999.

Therefore, if there is nothing in the current 2.0 text that prohibits 
sub-string hotspotting, e.g., nothing in 2.0's content model that prevents 
sub-string APS tagging, then sub-string APS tagging automatically is a 
feature of 2.0 by virtue of the ISO defect correction.

So, strictly speaking, we might need a 2.0 erratum to *prevent* APS tagging 
within sub-strings, if we wish sub-string hotspotting to be 2.1-legal but 
not 2.0-legal.
