RE: no BP sub-group call this week - busy prepping WD release

*Nudges Phil and Bill*

Since we want a stable BP draft by tomorrow, so we can vote on its release next week, could you please complete your actions:

Phil: bibliography  update … and figure out if we should use a simple hyperlink in place of a bib-ref

Bill: glossary … make sure we have glossary terms for everything that experts might say - and make sure that the glossary definitions are appropriate

Thanks in advance!

Linda

Onderwerp: no BP sub-group call this week - busy prepping WD release

Hi- at the f2f meeting at TPAC last week, we made loads of progress ... not least was agreeing that the BP doc has changed so much that we should release it _now_ (more or less) even though we know there's still so much to do to get it _finished_.

Here are my notes from the discussion about WD release:

```

@phila: urges publication with only minimal change … there’s been a huge amount of work done and we should share this for wider review

What to do:

  *   terminology … making sure that we use spatial thing consistently …  [LvdB … fixed already][Andrea to check again?]

  *   glossary … make sure we have glossary terms for everything that experts might say - and make sure that the glossary definitions are appropriate [@bill]

  *   bibliography [@phila] … and figure out if we should use a simple hyperlink in place of a bib-ref

  *   close issues that we have actually resolved [lvdb]

  *   remove the yellow highlight [@jtandy]

  *   status of this document [@jtandy]

  *   change since last release (“substantial re-write”) … therefore don’t need a Diff [@jtandy]

  *   update to REQ vs BP … could be automated [@newton (from DWBP WG)]

…

stable version on 5-Oct (wed call)

vote to release 12-Oct

```

So we have a bunch of editorial actions to do to make a stable release for 5-Oct (next week) and then (hopefully) a vote to release the week after.



If you've got actions (me, linda, bill, phila, andrea) then please crack on with them. Please ask if you have questions ...



We're also expecting some additional content from Payam regarding CRS.

Best Regards, Jeremy
