FW: Notes: Steps in Amending IS 26300 for ODF 1.1 Alignment

["Dennis E. Hamilton" <dennis.hamilton@acm.org>]

I needed to report that I was the critical path (slipping day for day at the
moment) on a task undertaken with Francis Cave at SC34 WG6.

The discussion of progression and what the critical paths are at the front
is relevant to concerns of the ODF TC, and is my personal thinking on how I
propose to contribute my efforts.

Working Draft Resumes

I must report that I have made no further progress since my August 24
report.

On the last teleconference call, I promised completion of my review and
coordination with Francis so that we could have a revised Amendment draft
for possible balloting at the end of October.

While I don't want to insist that this is impossible, I confess that I have
allowed the current number of tasks associated with advancement of ODF 1.2
to release and public review of another OASIS Committee Draft to completely
dominate my attention.  The Committee Draft readiness is on roughly the same
timeline as the AMD1 draft readiness.

Here are my critical-path priorities at the moment, as information that
might be useful in how the SC34 WG6 sides of these activities might be
orchestrated.  This is from my personal perspective and does not reflect any
tasks take on by the ODF TC at this point.

This will be worth discussion on the 2010-10-13 call as well.

PROGRESSION (HIGHEST PRIORITIES FIRST)
 1. Complete JIRA Issues that I have ownership of, continue JIRA Issue
resolution review
 2. Create any necessary issues against ODF 1.2 CD05 to reconcile with the
adjustments made in ODF 1.0 Errata 02 for consistency and, in some cases,
improved language.
 3. Resume Trial application of the Draft IS 26300:2006 AMD1 for
determination of corrections for a new Draft AMD1.
 4. Create necessary issues against ODF 1.1 to reconcile with the
adjustments made in ODF 1.0 Errata 02 (both parts) and with issues detected
as part of AMD1 preparation.  This will move to ODF 1.1 Errata 01.
 5. From OASIS Approved ODF 1.1 Errata 01, prepare comments to the balloting
of AMD1 at SC34. 

At this point, we would march forward with IS 26300:2006/AMD1 and OASIS ODF
1.1 aligned while the parallel staging of ODF 1.2 through JTC1 submission
and approval will be underway.

Working Draft Resumes

My goal was to have completed a first past last weekend.  I found it more
difficult than that.  I have concluded reviewing the amendment text through
the end of section 9.2 and will be starting on amendments for section 9.3.

At the moment, it looks like there are enough items to justify a third draft
AMD1 before doing a clean comparison with the original ODF 1.1 text to make
sure all remaining discrepancies are intentional and understood.

I'll have more update by next Monday, August 30.
