INDIVIDUAL ACTION ITEMS
Keith: Request of Scott McGrath that DITA Adoption have BOTH an
  open source (public) and ATC-only Git repo.
Stan: Nag the team on 03-17 about adding comments to DUG wiki.
Keith: Notify Scott McGrath that the three Adoption TC subcommittees 
  are no longer active and should be archived.  
Stan: Include in the Action items email Kathy's notes from CIDM 
  DITA basics instructors about common customer pain points:
  1. Bridging the DITA mechanisms with what they see in their 
     authoring tool.
  2. Understanding that DITA content creation is just a part 
     of the structured markup publishing ecosystem i.e. that 
     they will need other things besides an understanding of 
     how to use an authoring tool to create DITA content
  3. Relating their existing content creation processes to 
     working in DITA (example: just writing the content 
     and then figuring out what topic type it is afterwards)
  4. Understanding map-level linking behaviors at bottom of
     topics in HTML output
Gershon: Prep the discussion about DITA financials. 
Stan: Capture all the meeting notes about organizing our 
  approach to whitepaper publishing.
Stan: Draft an ATC handout/flyer for review at the next meeting.
