I dont know why the mail archives havent included this reply to that question which clarifies actual state of issues for PROF: Note these issue tag count numbers are not necessarily reflective of the work involved in splitting... PROF has some 13 issues in the document [1] (issues that seem to relate to something unresolved or unactioned within the scope of the specification. Other issues would remain as historical discussions in the original repo unless re-opened by consensus of a reactivated PROF sub group. ) Editorial extraction of the specific issues and the current state of the discussion is certainly something I'd be happy to undertake if its too hard to simply copy these issues to the new repo - i'm guessing that new issue numbers would need to be introduced to a new ED. New issues that relate to potential changes to the specification itself can always be proposed and added to the new repo - they should reference some specific clause of the specification however, and not be about the general nature of things... IMHO we need an improved process to make sure issues are actionable, and also to stop them becoming multi-threaded. Suggestions for an improved procedure here welcome. (i admit i've been guilty of responding in detail to off-topic discussions in issues and hence perpetuating past bad practice - but if we had a better set of guidelines to follow it would be easy to exercise editorial control over issues). I have no objection to leaving DCAT in place - that would be a decision for the DCAT group - but i would recommend they do a bulk close of all non-DCAT issues at the very least. I have no interest in trying to be on top of two sets of issues per deliverable, A profiles guidance Note (it would never be a REC in nature) could be restarted at any time - and the repo split at that point - but it may be cleaner to get the split done once if the existing repo is to have any ongoing role beyond historical issue discussions.
