      - Tim to find ways for UBL.xml.org to feed social media

      - please notify Ken and Tim of your interest in helping
      - once we get new participants we will meet to discuss revamping the
        site
    - how better to get a higher profile on the www.oasis-open.org web site?
      - how can we position UBL to make it easier for people looking for
        it without knowing its name, emphasizing it is an eBusiness standard

UBL TC next steps

   - what promotional issues need to be addressed?
   - UBL 2 is an organic thing that can be grown

   - what do we do for implementation support?
   - should we write a companion document of how to use the specification?
   - industry-specific documentation?
   - make it easier to find what is relevant without changing the actual
     specification

   - how about a Twitter feed of UBL adoption and announcements?

   - what subject matter issues need to be addressed?
     - is there a need for XML equivalents to the container messages?
       - http://www.smdg.org/itigg/downloads/
       - Tim is already addressing the ITFM** messages, the question
         here is about the CO**** messages
       - we haven't seen any requests from people wanting XML for containers

OTHER BUSINESS

- discussed the need to be agile in responding to new requirements
  - the governance document will overview the process of committee members
    and outside submitters bringing forward their needs
  - note that the working documents are overviewed in this Google Doc:
<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1RSvewwdS-lp4sl-gYHI5gjNxrgXXqCc5wuA6UI5hhWA/view>https://docs.google.com/document/d/1RSvewwdS-lp4sl-gYHI5gjNxrgXXqCc5wuA6UI5hhWA/view
  - every outside submission will be given a JIRA ticket to track its
    acceptance and its incorporation into the master Google Spreadsheet:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1JJYdO7ZqmhPJvJgn7DMwwsTIQ0KUWI9-KEJIoMkfF3w/view
  - committee members wanting to create their own sandbox copy of UBL 2.1
    can make a read-write copy of this read-only Google Spreadsheet:
<https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1iqF8O626Fefd7wSHoXVkiZ15IbdkC3PeKNqjS7Ztbig/view>https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1iqF8O626Fefd7wSHoXVkiZ15IbdkC3PeKNqjS7Ztbig/view
  - anyone can make their own schemas from their own copies for their own
    tests
  - committee members can then create JIRA tickets of features to be
    accepted by the committee and track their incorporation into the
    master Google Spreadsheet (no different than outside submissions)
  - the committee will create working drafts (we can make 99 of them
    before we run out of numbers) of the schemas based on snapshots of
    the master Google Spreadsheet (these will be publicly accessible)
