No new status. Specalization topics done.
2. Work items:

the next TC meeting
Email to be sent about 45 minute meeting this week

Seth Park has volunteered to take over for

it. Robert will also do sections for Machine Industry topics.

to work on it this week.
4. Question about use of images of rendered graphics in
specifications
Action item: Chris Kravogel to include graphics of
hazard images in next draft.
2. ITEM: Issue: Map element IDs and references to them
*
http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/dita/200907/msg00024.html (Kimber)
* Close if Michael has reviewed and agreed to ID uniqueness
proposal.
Possible scenario: Map IDs should be unique if possible,
duplicate IDs can result in indeterminate results. Michael would like
result to always be predictable in the processor.
To be discussed more on email list.

To determine how DITA interacts with other information systems
Motion made by Seth Park to approve motion to create DiCE

4. New ITEM: Terminology for SC artifacts (Rockley)
Dita for business docs subcommittee has looked at terms
used around task.
Would like to make sure the term "simplified task" does
not make it into current specification.
DITA adoption committee will monitor use around these terms.
Don requested that discussion about the Adoption TC's role
for this and other terminology be had on the respective email list, and
if any new issues are found, bring them up on the DITA TC's list.
