The committee voted to approve what we called CD 01, take 2. It
consisted of what we had previously submitted -- formatting adjusted to
meet OASIS style regulations-- plus the following new topics:
Normative references
Non-normative references
Formatting conventions in the XHTML versions of the specification
Do you want us to revise the minutes so that they clearly capture our
intention to approve "CD O1, take 2"? We can call that CD 02 if you
like; I do not think that revising the cover pages to be marked as CD
02 requires a TC vote; please advise me if I am wrong.
The TC's understanding was that the first draft released for public
review was by definition CD 01; is this incorrect?
We -- and the rest of the larger DITA community -- are truly eager to
get DITA 1.2 out of public review as quickly as we can. Please help us
do so.

It's my understanding that there were changes above and
beyond the XHTML formatting issues. The TC must approve the newly
revised CD01 R1 as CD02. The files must also be appropriately
identified, including the hypertext links that appear in the front
matter.
I don't know intention vs reality; if the motion was to approve
the XHTML version then that isn't sufficient. If the motion was to
approve CD02 then that wasn't properly captured.

Mary,
the TC's intention was to vote to approve
the revised CD 01. What do the minutes need to say in order to convey
the intention properly and have the 60-day request approved? Or does
the contents of the submission ZIP simply need to be marked as CD 02?
Best,
Kris

In looking at the meeting minutes, I do not see that the
TC voted to approve a new Committee Draft but that it okayed the XHTML
rendition, and the submission zip file still bears the CD01
designation. The request is therefore rejected.
Respectfully,
Mary
