=============
TC Dinner to be held at DITA NA conference next week
Monday 6:30 at Passion Fish restaurant
At present we have 17 people!
6. Action item (Tom): Add "add more metadata for google analytics" to dita 13 errata page
Kris: How can we get people to link to the spec (email to TC list)
https://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/dita/201603/msg00038.html
Any suggestions?
Eliot: looks ok to me
Promoting this at DITA NA (ideas from various people):
- Distribute a flyer?
-- ask the experts session
-- At/near the conf registration table
-- At/near the vendor schwag table
-- promote at BOFs
- Action item: Keith look into IXIASOFT printing promotional slips
- Action item: Kris and Tom flesh out the content of the flyer
- Action item: Kris to send message to dita-users once we finish the message
Kris: Should we consider revising our "why 3 editions?" paper to include a topic about promoting DITA 1.3?
"how to be sure that your hyperlinks point to the most helpful place"
7. DITA 1.3 errata planning
Kris emailed to clarify OASIS process
(summarized the email, which was her interpretation of the process)
https://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/dita/201603/msg00037.html
Tom: There was a reply just now from Chet to the list
Kris: would be great to have someone "project managing" the DITA 13 errata
example to-do list for the PM:
1. Select target date
2. Work with actual editors (assume Kris & Robert, but could change) to make sure changes made
3. Work with Bob on build processes (handle change tracking)
4. Probably run the builds
Kris: any brave souls to volunteer for PM?
(crickets)
Think about it, folks!
Keith: may be up for "apprenticing" but needs to focus on dita.xml.org right now
Kris: you're definitely out of the running!
8. Characters allowed in keys and key scopes
Robert summarized status, followup emails
Seems to be consensus that in 2.0 want to expand chars allowed; be clear about what chars allowed (to avoid problems in future).
Only contention is whether we want to make a statmeent, or go forward and decide on our rule for 2.0.
Do we need to continue actively working on the charset now?
Eliot: doing it now would provide input for implementors
Robert: worried about fixing anything too soon now, who knows what could change in the future
Robert: say we are going to explicitly allow more characters, but final is TBD
Tom: Do we have a "list of things to be done for 2.0?" now?
Robert: We have a list of deferred-to-2.0 items
Jim: what about keyscopes (what chars will we allow)?
robert: think this is unclear now (Chris said was "same as keys")
Eliot: it is in the spec, I found it somewhere (not easy to find)
(NOTE: Eliot later reported that he probably misremembered this and could not find it in the spec; Chris later reported that it WAS in earlier versions of the spec, but appears to have been removed in the finalized version, perhaps as a result of one of the refactoring efforts.)
Action item: Robert: put this on DITA 1.3 errata (--- already done (verify))
Kris: Eliot, let Robert know where you found this
Kris: we do have a wiki page (backlog) for 2.0
Action item Kris: 1. add wiki page to agenda (so we can find it); 2. add this item to the list
Final announcements:
====================
Kris: no meeting next week due to many TC members attending CMS/DITA North America.
