RE: epubcheck rfp - final details

Hi,
 
DAISY has several newsletters and we have inclusivepublishing.org. Perhaps
the various orgs could agree to put in their newsletters, W3C, BISG, etc.
What about the publisher organizations, AAP, IPA, EPA, etc.
What about through Google, Microsoft, Apple, Amazon, Kobo, etc?
 
Best
George

Subject: epubcheck rfp - final details
 
Hi All,
 
Some final details to nail down before we send out the epubcheck RFP next
week:
 
1.	Contact Person: Rick, you were volunteered in your absence. I was
wondering though if we should just use this email address
(public-publishing-sc@w3.org <mailto:public-publishing-sc@w3.org> ) so that
the responses are archived.
2.	Where are posting this? Rachel suggested the epubcheck GitHub
repository. Romain Deltour confirmed that this is fine with him as long as
it's just a page on the wiki (https://github.com/IDPF/epubcheck/wiki). I can
prepare that next week if everyone is okay with it.
3.	How are we announcing this? Is there a letter?
 
Other issues that can be addressed at the next SC meeting
Review Committee: 
Liisa, Rachel, and I proposed the following people as a review committee:
Romain Deltour (even though there is potential conflict of interest if DAISY
bids on this, I don't see how we can assess a proposal without Romain's
input)
Tobias Fischer (other than Romain, Tobias is the only person who has made
meaningful contributions to epubcheck in the last few years)
Brady Duga - Brady participated in the efforts to revive epubcheck and had
some good ideas about renovating the site (and no good deed goes unpunished)
Someone from the HTML Validator team and / or testing (possible SpecOps) -
our ultimate goal is to work better with W3C tooling, so it would make sense
to loop someone in.
 
This list is distinctly lacking the female of the species. We considered
asking Marisa DeMeglio as well. It might be odd to have 2 people from DAISY.
Who else should be on this list?
 
We of course have to confirm that these people are available in July/August
to review the submissions and that they are willing to participate.
 
Thanks,
Tzviya
