Subject: UBL coordination meetings
Hello UBL TC, In order to better coordinate activities in the UBL subcommittees, the UBL Chairs SC has decided to establish a regular weekly meeting to track action items and pursue the resolution of issues that cross SC boundaries. The meetings will take place every Friday at 11 p.m. in Perth and Hong Kong, which is Friday at 7 a.m. California time in the northern hemisphere winter and Friday at 8 a.m. California time in the northern hemisphere summer. The meetings will be chaired by myself (TC chair) or by Mark Crawford (TC vice chair). Our schedule for the next couple of months is as follows: 2003.12.05 Meet Chair: Jon 2003.12.12 Meet Chair: Jon 2003.12.19 Meet Chair: Jon 2003.12.26 Skip 2004.01.02 Skip 2004.01.09 Meet Chair: Mark 2004.01.16 Meet Chair: Mark 2004.01.23 Meet Chair: Mark 2004.01.30 Meet Chair: Mark 2004.02.06 Meet Chair: Jon UBL chairs and secretaries are required to attend these meetings, and all active UBL participants are urged to attend as well. In fact, these are simply more regular but less formal versions of the joint SC meetings that we hold from time to time in order to resolve shared technical issues. The primary output of these meetings will be AI and issues lists that will be maintained at fixed locations where they can easily be accessed by everyone. Anne Hendry has volunteered to put together the initial lists, but we will need someone to help maintain them going forward. Our first set of coordination issues (which will serve as the agenda for tomorrow's meeting) is as follows: - Uniform procedures for publishing SC minutes - Elimination of cross-posting between SC lists - Publication of NDRs - RosettaNet NDR input - Code lists - Schema generation - Q/A of deliverables - Final CCTS alignment - Formal contribution of UBL semantics to TBG17 - Creation and maintenance of Beta/FCS diff lists for input to localization SCs and implementors - Customization Every UBL participant interested in these issues should attend the coordination meetings, beginning with the first one on 5 December, and everyone involved in UBL should make it a point to monitor the issues list once it's been established in order to attend the meetings at which issues of interest to them will be discussed. We expect that some issues will be dealt with by asking for ad hoc volunteer teams to perform an analysis and report back at the next meeting. The willingness of members to take on these short-term tasks will be essential to the success of this plan. Jon
