   <trackbot-ng> ACTION-52 -- Anne van Kesteren to bring summary of
   where the Forms TF is and recommendation for action to HTML WG --
   due 2008-02-21 -- PENDINGREVIEW

   ChrisWilson: there has been no follow-up to anne's summary e-mail

   <ChrisWilson> (that is, no further emails since the charter
   discussion)

   ChrisWilson: his recommendation is that if nothing has happened by
   July 2008, then we just revert to the HTML WG owns forms in HTML and
   the Forms WG owns forms as a standalone

   <ChrisWilson> This seems reasonable to all on the call

   ChrisWilson: So I think his recommended course of action is good.

   <ChrisWilson> close action-52

   <trackbot-ng> ACTION-52 Bring summary of where the Forms TF is and
   recommendation for action to HTML WG closed

   <ChrisWilson> action-53?

   <trackbot-ng> ACTION-53 -- Dan Connolly to check for offline api
   stuff in WebAPI proposed charter -- due 2008-02-28 -- PENDINGREVIEW

   <anne> FWIW, Ian Hickson would like explicit consent from the Forms
   WG that they're ok with us working on forms again, as I understand
   it.

   <Hixie> i don't mind

   <Hixie> i just want to make sure that i don't start integrating wf2
   into html5 only later to be told that it needs to all be undone and
   turned into xforms

   <Hixie> if the group decides that wf2 is fine and we're not going to
   try to use xforms, that works too

   <Hixie> (the group = htmlwg)

   <anne> k

   <ChrisWilson> ACTION: Chris Wilson to follow up with Forms WG to
   make sure they understand this plan of action by 5/1/2008 [recorded
   in http://www.w3.org/2008/03/27-html-wg-minutes.html#action01]

   <trackbot-ng> Created ACTION-56 - Wilson to follow up with Forms WG
   to make sure they understand this plan of action by 5/1/2008 [on
   Chris Wilson - due 2008-04-03].

   <ChrisWilson> noted. I'll make sure that we follow up with them.

   <ChrisWilson> we are trying to work together here, but we do want to
   eventually ship html5. With forms.

   <Hixie> indeed

   <Hixie> certainly, since they are forms experts, their input can
   only make the spec better

   <Hixie> it is unfortunate that they have not been forthcoming with
   feedback so far

   <ChrisWilson> Mike: not going to have mention of offline apps in
   webapi charter

   <ChrisWilson> I want this ot be discussed in the hypertext cg, so
   I'm keeping the action pending review.

   <ChrisWilson> action-54?

   draft text for HTML 5 spec to require producers/authors to include
