Business

1. ITEM: Release Management -- 
        
	Seth will get template for the phase 2 proposal for release management. 

	Gershon -- discussion of traceability to the change agent -- URI to other documents
	Tom's is in a separate document with information about the change
	Consider a change history domain

	Book change history as a model--edited date, review date

	Change event
	
	Could recommend deprecation of critdate

	Use <data> href to point to specific item that has changed -- ability to format with change bars

2. ITEM: change tracking

 	Comment at DITA TC that change tracking is an XML issue not a DITA issue

	Discussion of marking the text -- discussed the complexities, would not include delimiting factor

	Rob has another idea and wants to develop another proposal on this

	Seth explained that users can still use "flag" attributes
	
	Rob--change history is then maintained in two places -- suggests pointers to changed content

	JoAnn -- what about deletions?

	Rob -- deletions would remain for review cycle vs publishing -- such as strike-through content

3. ITEM -- Troubleshooting documentation

	Three proposals for committee to take to the phase 2 proposal template
	
	No details in discussion about the substructure of the additional elements 
	(steptrouble, tasktrouble, trouble value on type attribute)

	Sue will discuss with BobT about handling proposals. Ask Bob to attend next meeting.

Adjourn 12:00 noon ET.
