[w3c sml][agenda] 2009-04-20 SML

Len/Kumar, it appears you may be scribing this week.

Chair:  when sending out an agenda, use following format 
  [w3c sml][agenda] yyyy-mm-dd SML          in subject of email 
                                            ([agenda] agreed to, 
                                            rest chair's convention) 
Chair:  when sending out an updated agenda, use following format, 
        "n" = update number, 1st update == 2, etc. 
  [w3c sml][agenda][ver n] yyyy-mm-dd SML   in subject of email 
                                            ([agenda] agreed to, 
                                            rest chair's convention) 
Scribe: read entire agenda, your "to do"s around the scribe list are 
        time-sequenced so there is less to remember.

Proposed Agenda: 

1. Prolog 

1.1. Roll call (present/regrets/absent) 

1.2. Selection of Scribe based on list below
   New scribes see: 
   - Scribe Quick Start Guide 
http://dev.w3.org/cvsweb/%7Echeckout%7E/2002/scribe/scribedoc.htm 
   - Scribe FAQ 
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Member/member-ws-policy/2006Oct/0001.html 
   - Instructions (steps "n-...") at the end of this agenda for reviewing
     and sending out minutes

   - PLEASE make any new Actions fully self-describing so they do not 
     require the minutes as context.  We found it awkward in the past to
     require going back to the minutes for context. 

Last Scribe Date        Member Name         Regrets pending 
2008-05-22              Lynn, James         Until further notice

2009-01-15              Gao, Sandy          Second half of Mondays 
(probably scribe-exempt) 
2009-03-23              Pandit, Kumar

   - 04/13 
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-sml/2009Apr/att-0030/20090413-sml-minutes.html

1.4. "from the CG" http://www.w3.org/XML/Group/SML#schedule

1.5. Action items: goes faster if you update yours before the meeting...
     http://www.w3.org/2005/06/tracker/sml/

2. New Work

2.1. Triage bugs with no keywords or target 

3. Existing Work

3.1. Review and attempt to reach consensus on other non-editorial bugs 
     targeted for the next draft.

     Within each cluster, typically we look at them in this order
           "decided" (after the 2-week grace period for responses ends)
           "needsReview" (either we have consensus, 
                      it's no longer needsReview, 
                      or the editors need to re-spin the proposed text)
           "hasProposal" 
           "externalComments + reviewerNotSatisfied" - even if closed, 
                                                       e.g. 5543, 5562
           "externalComments + neither( reviewerNotSatisfied 
                                      , reviewerSatisfied )" 
                          aka "reach out again?"
           others

3.2. Rec track documents
     review list from 
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-sml/2009Apr/0009.html
     (2) the editors need to prepare a draft containing this change and 
that 
         satisfies the Rec pubrules, and create a list of important 
changes since 
         last transition (the References change might be the only one, and 
a bug 
         needs to be entered for it)
          - need a date
     (1) the wg needs to establish a proposed publication date
          - need a date
     (3) the chair and/or Team Contact need to draft a transition request
          - in progress
     (4) the Team Contact needs to schedule a transition call with the 
Director
          - note: Director/rep might waive call if no "controversy"
     (5) the Team Contact ensures a public comment mailing list is 
available 
         - plan to use public-sml
     (6) wg members need to figure out what form of publicity they want 
and 
         coordinate that with w3c Comm Team
         - need a date
     (7) Team Contact stages the docs in TR space and requests
         publication from the Web Master

3.3. Review EPR and XLink Notes
   - EPR   Note: Final-Final draft of EPR Note expected for 5/4 meeting 
(committed 4/13)
   - XLink Note: comments due on CVS draft 
                 We know it still needs the new reference wording to align 
with Rec track documents
                                 aka 
http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=6806
   - Come with your comments (or better, email prior to the list)

4. Epilog

4.1. Scribe: update scribe list below in this meeting's minutes, for use
     in the next meeting's agenda.  Update the list below and sort it 
         (LRU), leaving people who will be out for an extended period near 

         the bottom to keep the names of draftees for the current meeting 
         near the top, so when the next agenda goes out people will know 
if 
         their name is at or near the top of the list to scribe next. 

Last Scribe Date        Member Name         Regrets pending 
2008-05-22              Lynn, James         Until further notice 
2009-01-08              Smith, Virginia     First  half of Mondays 
(probably scribe-exempt) 
2009-01-15              Gao, Sandy          Second half of Mondays

Exempt                  Henry Thompson 


4.2. Scribe: follow the steps in the Scribe Quick Start Guide through 
     "Generate minutes" 
     http://dev.w3.org/cvsweb/%7Echeckout%7E/2002/scribe/scribedoc.htm 
     Also issue the command "rrsagent, make log public" since we are a 
         public working group.

     DO NOT use tools that significantly change the source html, like 
         Word, to do your editing.  Those tools make compare tools to 
sanity
     check the scribe's edits unusable even though it renders fine 
     visually (even here, some like Word remove W3C style sheets so it 
     renders with subtle differences).

4.3. Scribe: (optional, but most often followed)
     Send the original and updated minutes to the meeting chair as an 
     editorial check before sending to the full list.  Assume the chair 
     will use a compare tool.
 
4.4. Scribe: send the minutes to the public mailing list 
     After the meeting, follow the conventions we have agreed on within
         the wg to help people search the email archives more effectively, 

         namely: 
     [w3c sml][minutes] yyyy-mm-dd SML    in subject of email 
                                          ([minutes] agreed to, 
                                          rest chair's convention) 
     As with agendas, if minutes are updated include a [ver n] "tag" as 
         well.

4.5. Chair
     After meeting, update good standing list
