ROLL CALL

1) CALL TO ORDER
a) Approval of previous minutes
b) Agenda review and additions
c) Announcements (especially for XDI TC home page)
d) Review of outstanding action items

2) INTRODUCTION
We will welcome to the TC Steve Churchill, who works with Andy Dale at
ooTao.

3) NEXT FACE-TO-FACE: OASIS SYMPOSIUM, 24-29 APRIL, NEW ORLEANS
We will discuss planning for our next f2f meeting.

4) ITEM VS INSTANCE TERMINOLOGY
Since publication of the v2 universal schema, feedback has been that the XRI
subelement name "Item" is not as descriptive or intuitive as "Instance".
More background will be provided in a separate email to the list, and we'll
see if we can reach consensus.

5) REFS, BACKREFS, LINKS, AND THE XDI LOGICAL DATA MODEL
In meetings over the break, Drummond, Andy, and Steve have been exercising
the v2 universal schema and the logical data model. It has yielded elegant
answers to several longstanding issues. We will walk through examples in
both XDI graph and XML formats (to be uploaded tomorrow), which should at
the same time answer many questions about the referencing model that came up
in the last call.

6) CLOSING AND NEXT MEETING
