Re: TC.Projectplan: R&D Roles: HumanML_Write Facilitator

Thanks Joe.  This will make things a lot 
easier.

 

A couple of added points:

 

-Everything will have to be under OASIS's 
copyright/IPR for HumanML_Write.  OASIS will make sure the work is 
open-source and non-proprietary.

 

-Although there are some arguments against 
HumanMarkup TC including HumanML_Write, I wanted to emphasize it does go 
hand in hand with the XML specs at OASIS...the Amaya analogy makes perfect 
sense.  Of course, OASIS doesn't have a collaborative environment, so we 
could use ArgoUML and/or other tools/environments for the actual development of 
the project.
