2.) ODF 1.2 -- current status; update,
review status of our collateral plan -  Rob & Don 
2a) Podcast 
2b) ODF Focus Area role 

Don led a discussion reviewing the Action
Items table for the TC. See: http://wiki.oasis-open.org/odf-adoption/OdfAdoptionTcActionItems

Action Item	Owner	Due Date	Status
Digital Signatures: Short Paper	Bart	?	In progress
Metadata: Short Paper	Bart	?	In progress

Podcast: ODF Co-Chairs discuss ODF 1.2	Rob & Don	Nov 26	In progress
Podcast: What's new at the ODF Toolkit Union?	Don	Nov 26	In progre

The key points here are that we have
a set of deliverables; e.g. collaterals such as short papers, presentations,
but also podcasts, and potentially some video content that must be completed
by end-of-year in support of ODF 1.2. It's time to get these done, and
more...

Don encouraged TC members to identify
gaps and self-assign deliverables to expand the overall scope and depth
of the target items listed above.

3.)  ODF 1.2 Interop Demo -- debrief;
assess for collateral opportunities; i.e. podcasts, video, etc. - Don 

Don summed up the Interop Demo results.
A report will be submitted to the ODF TC to log the completion of the requirement.

Additional opportunities are available
to invite Demo participants to submit  a brief profile of their solution
together with a description of how it supports ODF 1.2. These may be posted
to the ODF Focus Area following acceptance by the TC.

4.) ODF News / Round Table  --
All 
TC members were invited to share recent
news. 
Don informed the TC that Symphony 3
 GA was accomplished on October 21, matching function in OpenOffice
3, but with a unique user interface and programming model for extension
based on Java. Symphony is a derivative of OpenOffice Technology.
Don informed the TC that IBM internal
rollout is now beginning to gain momentum with the availability of Symphony
3. Enterprise customers are taking notice.

5.) Agree on meeting time as the U.S.
moves off of daylight savings time. 

Proposal:  Keep the local US meeting
time constant as Europe and then the 
US transition into standard time. 

The proposal was accepted by Charles
based in France.


The meeting was adjourned.
