2/ 
Minutes of the last meeting was read and 
agreed. Proposed by David and seconded by Enda.

 

3/ 
Reformat

This discussion 
began with Mat outlining what his proposal was. 

There was a debate 
on the effect of introducing this proposal on backward and forward 
compatability. Views were expressed about the effect these changes would have 
and how tools would deal with them.

 

Tony outlined that 
there were three options. Mat's options 1 & 2 and Doug's Options. Mat 
suggested there were in fact four and the fourthwas similar to option 2 except 
that the children of the source element would be inserted before the text 
content 

We had a round robin 
vote to find the favourite option and had the following 
result:

Option 2 - 12 
votes

Option 3 - 3 
votes

Option 4 - 2 
votes

There were 2 votes 
expressing no preferences.

It was noted that 
Option 2 was the clear favourite.

 

It was decided that 
we would do the following:

Mat will write up 
four options and send them to the group.

Any reservations by 
TC members should be expressed before the next meeting. It was suggested that 
John in particular might want to comment on this.

We will decide on 
this at our next meeting.

 

4/
