JoAnn accepted working on an article about the generation of DITA shells after this years end.

Gershon informed that the review of the new architectural spec would be ready on mid January.

Gershon commented that the review tools offered by XMetal developers may not be used for the review of DITA 1.2, but perhaps it could be used in the future. 

Regarding Tony Selfs article on glossary, JoAnn commented that it is well written and the only remaining details were related to formatting. Gershon, Rodolfo and Kristen agreed on her comments.
