[RDFa TC] Roadmap for approval

Elias, Fabien, Ben, Shane, Wing,

As of my action [1], I'm now going to start the
approval preparation of the RDFa TC.

The three appointed implementers (Elias, Fabien, Ben - 3I for short ;)
should have a look at the proposed plan as described below. 
The 3I are asked to i) confirm their availability, and 
ii) comment on the necessary steps to be taken:

1. The host languages features are summarised in [2].
Please have a _critical_ look at this Wiki page (Shane?).
This matrix will get an integral part of the RDFa Test Suite [3].

2. The next step is the partitioning of the TC along
HTML4/XHTML1.1/XHTML2.0, which basically means to create three
RDF manifest documents, along with a matrix that summarises the
applicable tests. 

Wing, can you confirm this, please? 

3. We start with test approval for the XHTML1.1+RDFa partition. 
The idea is to have this ready by next telecon on 23. April 2007.
This requires that each of the 3I runs all the selected TC in the
according environment (WS/JS/XSLT), and reports conformance and
any troubles with the TC execution.


My proposed time schedule looks as follows.

Till Wed, 18 April: 
We (Wing and I) work on the partitioning.

Till Thu, 19 April:
The 3I go through the Test Suite [3] and
tell if it is possible for them to actually 
perform the tests.

Till Mon, 23 April:
The 3I report on the mailing list about the
results on the tests. These will be gathered in
a first step on a Wiki page; after approval the
results are published as an (non-normative)
implementation report (cf. [4])


Cheers,
	Michael
