3/ Review Requirements for inline elements [define, understand, the vote - being mindful of Tony's suggestion of limiting the length of discussion]
(come to consensus on the requirements, then assign owners to propose wording for the spec)    
(http://wiki.oasis-open.org/xliff/OneContentModel/Requirements?action=show&redirect=Requirements)

4/  "XLIFF 2.0 will be complete when _______" 
  There are two camps for filling in the blank
 
  A. Set a calendar goal. All items that are complete and approved by the 
     TC make it into XLIFF 2.0 - All others need to wait for the "next train," 
     i.e., XLIFF 2.X or XLIFF 3. Special care needs to be taken to define 
     doneness and ensure no dependency issues between items. 
     And "XLIFF 2.0 is complete on set date of *Month/Day/Year*"
          
         - or - 
 
 B. Define a finite set of XLIFF 2.0 items. Set a cutoff date for adding items. 
    The list of accepted items becomes our requirements document.
    And "XLIFF 2.0 is complete when items 1 through X are finished"
    (some in this camp see our current set of goals, as is, as that 
    finite list)

    i. Yves commented that XLIFF is not a software. And we should be careful with releasing versions that do not have some specific features we know will ultimately end up there. (http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/xliff/200904/msg00018.html)
 
5/ XLIFF 2.0 
(http://wiki.oasis-open.org/xliff/XLIFF2.0/FeatureTracking)

Minutes:
Present: Bryan Schnabel, Doug Domeny, Yves Savourel, Luca Morado Vazquez, Dimitra Anastasiou, Rodolfo Raya, Magnus Martikainen, Christian Lieske, Asgeir Frimannsson, David Filip.

Rodolfo moved to approve previous meeting minutes. Yves seconded and none objected.

The discussion of requirements for content markup continued. Christian updated the wiki with terminology definitions.  

Bryan will update the wiki to reflect the decisions made by the TC.

It was agreed that the model should allow handling text that is marked up as a sub-flow in the original format, but not through a -like representation.  This implies loosing backward compatibility. The possibility to include  in transitional schemas will be discussed at implementation stage.

The feasibility of having a canonical representation was discussed. Action Item: Christian to extend the wiki content regarding canonical forms.

The request to allow annotations and extensions in the new model was analyzed. The scope of the request was not clear and several possibilities were discussed. Conversation may continue in an email thread. 

Luca mentioned that the open source project Lokalize has problems with the implementation of XLIFF support. The TC suggested using the comments mailing list for asking questions.

Call dismissed.
