Hi, Chet.
No, we would not use this for official TC votes. If we decide to
use it, we'll still ensure that the minutes of our weekly TC
meeting provide official summaries of our progress.
But since the OASIS tool set does not give us what we need to
handle project management/work flow needs, we are looking for
non-OASIS tools to keep us moving forward. As we know, we'll need
to do that for a mechanism to conduct our internal-to-the-TC
review of the DITA 1.3 spec.
I did experiment with Jira, and it just does not work for us; it
does not offer us the flexibility to create our own categories and
workflow.
Best,
Kris

Not to get procedurally pedantic or anything - but
this isn't "official" TC business, right? Asked another way,
this isn't part of the official record of the TC's activities?
Because if it is, using Trello violates the TC Process by
putting TC documentation on a non-OASIS platform where we can't
vouch for its permanence.
If this is sort of a scratch-pad activity and
you're going to make an official statement / vote on the TC's
web page, that's ok. But you really can't hold a TC vote over
there.
That said, it *is* pretty gosh-darn cool.
Best,

OK, I made the board public visibility--I didn't want to

it since it was/is just an experiment for now.
