The DITA Technical Committee met on Tuesday, 15 May 2007 at 08:00am PT
for 60 minutes.
1. Roll call
We have quorum.
2. Approve minutes from previous business meeting:
* http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/download.php/23929/DITA_TC.5.8.07.txt (8 May 2007)
Accepted.
[Don moved, Jim seconded, no objections]
3. Business:
1. ITEM: Resume the 1.2 Requirements review (need to finish 12029)
* http://wiki.oasis-open.org/dita/DITA_Specification_1.2_Requirements
12029: Decision to defer to 1.3 pending input of use cases.
ACTION: Don to ask Eliot to elaborate on this item, so the TC can
make a decision whether to keep it for 1.3 or remove it.
12035:
JoAnn needs this for glossary.
Some discussion on the wider use cases.
JoAnn agrees this item is targeted at a more general need.
Erik: If it's specific to glossary, we should add it to the existing
glossary proposal.
Erik: The use cases that we're seeing boil down to topic collation.
Michael: Let's merge with the glossary item for now (at the topic level),
and consider wider generic adoption for 1.3.
The TC supported Michael's suggestion.
12037: Decision to merge this item with 12011.
12038: Will be ready for contribution to 1.2
Decision to add to the 1.2 list.
12041: Chris: This is more a discussion of the organization of the spec,
not really input for the spec. Nothing to discuss.
12051: Need to clarify this requirement/proposal
ACTION: Don to ask Paul to clarify this item.
12052: Michael: Robert sent a note suggesting a compromise solution
that Paul was OK with.
After some discussion, the TC decided to take this item off the simple
list. Amber has a workaround and does not consider it vital for 1.2.
Decision to defer discussion to 1.3.
12056: We need a subcommittee to work on this item.
Don proposed to accept this item for 1.2 if a subcommittee forms
and completes the proposal within the 1.2 timelines.
Next step is to go through the 1.2 list to identify champions for each
item. We'll do that next week.
2. Clarification needed wrt nested references from maps to maps to topics
* http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/dita/200705/msg00030.html
Don: This issue is a request to add clarification to the 1.2 spec.
Michael suggested we add this as an addendum to item 12055.
ACTION: Robert to update the 1.2 requirements page to reflect this decision.
Robert: We're planning to add information and clarifications to the arch
spec as part of item 12004, which is to clarify the arch spec.
3. Request for new Semiconductor Subcommittee (Bob Beims)
Bob described the background behind the need for such a subcommittee,
and the purpose of the proposed subcommittee. The proposed
charter is in this email:
http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/dita/200705/msg00031.html
Bob: At this point we have a list of about 58 contacts across the
industry. Several of them are OASIS members. Many are also members
of the DITA TC.
Don moved to form the SC, with Bob as chair. Accepted with no objections.
DECISION: Form the semiconductor SC with Bob as chair.
3. Announcements/Opens
None.
