Started my interpretation of this action at http://www.w3.org/2005/rules/wg/wiki/Core_mapping_to_PR Technically this action is complete (the discussion is started) and on time (the Wiki page was created last Fri, albeit I lost most of the content when my PC crashed before "saving"). Apologies to the chairs for not announcing this in good time for today's call which unfortunately I will miss anyway. I plan to complete a "fuller contribution" on this topic by end of Fri on the wiki page above (unless I receive advice to move it elsewhere eg to Core ch4).
