Re: how to publish issue papers

Hi Lisa,

We covered this is the COGA Task Force meeting today, and the group agreed
with the following:

   - Yes, your two track approach makes sense as our path forward for issue
   papers. This is the right direction.
   - The group agreed that we would like to make sure there is a note
   included at the top of all of the issue papers that are wiki pages, which
   says something like "This is a wiki page maintained by the COGA Task force,
   and not an official W3C note" -- then there would be a link to the formal
   W3C notes.
      - We aren't sure that the language in that proposed note is the right
      language.
   - Next steps
      - Rain will put together a spreadsheet we can use to code the issue
      papers and track their prioritization
      - Becca will review that spreadsheet and improve it
      - Once we have it, we can use it to determine which issue papers we
      are doing first, and who will take leadership on each that we are
      committing to
