Re: PR related changes

[1] Pub date is on the agenda for this week.  Arbitrary is as good as 
anything right now.
[2] I think we can have them use bugzilla, i.e. just use the same text as 
we've had all along.
[3] Could you provide link to the diff?  I'll add it to the Request.
[4] I updated the SML WG home page, see if the checker is happier now. The 
text you suggested "This document ..." does not make sense for a WG page, 
I think that was intended for the documents being published.  So I copied 
(and tweaked, so it still points at SML) a similar section from XML Core, 
which has certainly been putting out Rec updates recently.
[5] sorry no help from me on the checker.

Best Regards, John

I have made PR publication related changes to both specs. They turned out 
to be a lot more work than I have done in the past for earlier 
publications. 
 
Michael, there are a few questions directed at you (see [2], [4] and [5]). 
Can you please take a look?
 
[1]
I arbitrarily chose Feb 12th (2 weeks after this Thursday’s call) as the 
PR publication date. Consequently the end-of-review-period date is March 
12th.
 
[2]
From pub rules:
1.      It also MUST provide information to Advisory Committee 
Representatives about how to send their review comments (e.g., a link to a 
WBS review form) 
Please verify. Found a link to an online questionnaire. Does this link 
provide access to the review form? 
 
I obtained the link to questionnaire from pub rules sample. I do not know 
if the link is correct or if we need to create an SML specific 
questionnaire for the AC reps. 
Michael, can you please comment?
 
[3]
I have created and checked in a diff between PR and CR drafts as required 
by the PR text. I have noted that “None of the changes affect the 
conformance criteria.”. The group should verify this statement in the next 
conf call.
 
[4]
If I understood the error message correctly, Michael needs to update the 
SML WG home page as described in the error below:
 
1.      It MUST include this text related to patent policy requirements 
(with suitable links inserted; see guidelines for linking to disclosure 
pages): 
This document was produced by a group operating under the 5 February 2004 
W3C Patent Policy. W3C maintains a public list of any patent disclosures 
made in connection with the deliverables of the group; that page also 
includes instructions for disclosing a patent. An individual who has 
actual knowledge of a patent which the individual believes contains 
Essential Claim(s) must disclose the information in accordance with 
section 6 of the W3C Patent Policy. 
Include this source code:
<p> This document was produced by a group operating under the <a href="
http://www.w3.org/Consortium/Patent-Policy-20040205/">5 February 2004 W3C 
Patent Policy</a>. W3C maintains a <a rel="disclosure" href="@@URI to IPP 
status or other page@@">public list of any patent disclosures</a> made in 
connection with the deliverables of the group; that page also includes 
instructions for disclosing a patent. An individual who has actual 
knowledge of a patent which the individual believes contains <a href="

">Essential Claim(s)</a> must disclose the information in accordance with 
<a href="
http://www.w3.org/Consortium/Patent-Policy-20040205/#sec-Disclosure

">section 6 of the W3C Patent Policy</a>. </p>
Note: Contact the Communications Team for suitable adaptations in the case 
where a document has been published jointly by more than one group. In the 
adaptation, be sure that the text for informative-only specs or specs not 
going to Rec is the same as the standard text. 
Error. Although the boilerplate text is correct, there is an inconsistency 
with respect to IPP for the group identified by 
http://www.w3.org/XML/SML/: Error. The link to the public disclosures page 
does not have the right link text; please refer to boilerplate.

The pub rules checker works correctly for SML-IF but errors out for SML 
spec (does not check rules after rule 12) therefore I could not check that 
doc completely. I had faced similar bug during CR publication. I do not 
know how to resolve this. Michael?
