Announcements
- Check your email for proposed OASIS policy changes
- Meeting time now shown as 2:00 - 3:00. We hardly ever go past 3:00
  anyway, and that is the time for the W3C XQuery Test Task Force
  teleconference, which is important for our burden-sharing.

Agenda items
- Past minutes accepted
- Suite development: Gauri plans to look at the current Xalan test suite
  Her team will do XQuery tests, but they are repurposeable to Xpath
  Has to wrestle with IP issues
- No news from XSL Working Group

General Discussion
- Zarella asks if we know about tests for XSLFO (Formatting Objects).
  Collectively, we don't, but she has suspicions that an entity
  called Compart is doing something in this area.

Membership
- No activity on this front

Next meeting dates
- November 18 (during XML 2004 conference)
- December 16
