------------------------------------------------------------------------
Status updates on issues 194, 199, 201, 204
js: 194, proposal in?
jf: plan to work on that before the weekend
js: don't expect major surprises at this point, media sub-team has
discussed the points
and have accommodated Apple concerns
hope to move to single proposal, but don't know yet
199, waiting to hear from Ted
chairs have a priority order on these?
pc: expecting 201 to be partially fulfilled by last night
have a timeline in the public archive
Ted promised 22 June for 199 and 201
a further week from him for 199, was pending Silvia's input which is now in
204 expected for 6 July
jf: talked with Ted at hackathon last week, similar info on his timelines
exploring MAY language, need to look at that more
Issue 203?
js: any last-minute counter-proposals?
pc: haven't checked yet, don't see anything
jf: don't see any
pc: should we focus a meeting on closing out some of these items?
concerned there was a peak of activity during and after the FtF
but now it's drying up
understand there's lots of work going on
but could be good to focus efforts
rs: hoping for faster responses to emails
pc: working on getting busy people looped in
have various concrete steps in play towards that
js: should we handle these issue by issue?
pc: yes, because they're not same sub-sets of people across the issues
js: I'll pursue getting some sessions set up with relevant parties for
the issues
rs: FtF tend to have lots of energy, then it flags afterwards
js: so virtual FtF on topics may help
pc: trying very hard to get everybody together
jf: I have specific action on 204 to rework language, think it's
relatively minor and can be cleaned up in next week or so
for 194, we should do another call, can help with that
js: for 204, John, Cynthia, Ted, Jonas
201, Rich, Frank, Ted
199, Michael, Ted
194, Janina, John, Silvia, Ted, Eric, Charles?
I will work to schedule 194 discussion
pc: believe 204 is in TF hands, awaiting consensus?
jf: that's pretty close
the clock has run out
just down to a bit of RFC2199 language details
js: anybody can propose MAY language, it's MUST and SHOULD that makes
consensus more difficult
jf: so just chasing that stuff down
think consensus is emerging
pc: we need to put something down soon, if not go to survey
jb: thought we had stated what would be acceptable
pc: would like a clear indication of whether you think gulf is too wide
and go to survey
jb: think it's about whether requirements met or not
js: does MAY solve this?
various: maybe
pc: don't want to wait indefinitely when don't see activity
so, what's the deadline?
if waiting on a middle ground, can put down yourselves, not just wait
for someone else
js: think JF has that on his plate
jf: I will rewrite draft by 25 June
after that, ball will be on Ted and Jonas to review
might go to survey if they don't like that version
think they will accept, but they need to see the specifics
jb: couldn't we just go to survey now?
js: if it gets surveyed, other issues muddy it
pc: there's a message from Maciej Monday, looks like a thread was hard
to follow
jb: so JF proposal for next steps seems optimal now
js: JF, please make wiki "version 4"
