Action Items from earlier meetings
- Convert Carmelo's XQuery F&O testcases into XSLT (Carmelo and ??)
  No progress yet; see what happens with XQuery Test Task Force, which
  is having a face-to-face in early August at NIST.
- Integrate reference files into 1.0 testsuite and post to public area.
  Dave completed. The "XSLT-testsuite-02.ZIP" version is complete.
  Auto-generated upload message sent July 12.

Agenda items
- Who is writing test cases?
  XSLT 1.0: nobody we know of right now.
  XSLT 2.0: TC emembers, within their companies.
  We have been contacted by Kurt Cagle, who evidently has some test cases
  or is interested in 2.0 cases. We need to get him to call in to one of
  our meetings to see where he stands. Noted: a contribution needs some
  form of statement of originality. (This is something that Mike Kay has
  mentioned about tests he's collected: he doesn't know origin, ownership,
  copyright, etc. of all the tests.)
- Status of our XSLT/XPath 1.0 test case collection
  See action item above.
- Any news from the W3C WGs?
  Nothing noted.
- Any change in our direction?
  Hope to have more clarity about XSL WG, XQuery WG, and their respective
  testing efforts soon.
