Amended: XLIFF TC Teleconference Minutes 6-May-2003

Apologies for the previous 
minutes; I didn't actually intend to send them to the list, merely save them 
until today when I could check them first. The attendance list was 
originally drawn from Kavi. However, it would appear that this may not have been 
quite up to date when I took the list.

 

Please find the amended 
minutes below.

XLIFF TC Teleconference Meeting - 6th May 
2003

Attendance

Bryan Schnabel, Christian Lieske, David Pooley, Doug 
Domeny, Gerard Cattin des Bois, John Reid, 
Mark Levins, Mat Lovatt, Milan Karasek, Tony Jewtushenko, Yves 
Savourel

 

2. Last Weeks 
Minutes

These were accepted without 
opposition.

 

3. XLIFF V1.1 
Specification

 

a) Discussion of inline 
elements

Yves 
outlined his opinion on how the id 
and rid attributes should be used. Some 
discussion followed and Yves/Doug agreed to clarify the wording for the 
specification. <bpt>/<ept> and <bx>/<ex> will be linked 
by having the same id attribute.

 

b) ctype 
attribute

John Reid 
started a discussion on the ctype attribute of inline tags, highlighting 
changes that have been made since V1.0. It was decided that this can be deferred 
until post V1.1 when inline tags are 
revisited.

 

All changes to the specification are to be given to 
Yves by the end of Wednesday. Yves will then update and re-distribute the 
specification on Thursday. Tony will set up a ballot for each voting member to 
accept or reject the XLIFF V1.1 specification.

 

4. 
Attendance records

A number of 
members have failed to meet the requirements for maintaining their OASIS TC 
membership. Tony asked for opinion on what should be done. It was decided to 
leave this to Tony as to what should be done with those members with a view to possibly applying the OASIS TC 
membership rules. Long-standing members 
who have contributed to the specification and have since let their attendance 
slip will be given a gentle reminder ...

 

5. 
AOB

a) "Endgame" 
issues

Tony 
proposed that each of the contributors submit a voluntary IPR statement to 
relinquish IPR on any aspects of the specification on which they have worked. 
Tony will send around a piece of text as an example of what could be used. This 
will not hold up V1.1. After much 
discussion, it was decided to take 
any more issues it 
offline.

 

6. Meeting adjourned
