I propose the following: * We use TXT as the format for DITA TC minutes. * Whoever takes the minutes for a DITA TC meeting uploads the TXT file to the Kavi repository AND copies the contents of the minutes into the field for the e-mail that (by default) is automatically sent to TC members when a file is uploaded.

I had to copy the text file to a new machine in order > to print it to PDF, and that operation was itself the kind of thing that > can be easily interrupted. I could do without PDF for that reason alone. > Also, I prefer for the minutes text to be searchable since we often need to > use these files as collective memory. Are PDFs capably indexed for search > on the OASIS archives? > > Regards, > -- > Don Day > Chair, OASIS DITA Technical Committee > Architect, Lightweight DITA Publishing Solutions > Email: [email protected] > 11501 Burnet Rd.
