SUMMARY OF DECISIONS
====================
Note to secretary: Please insert a summary of all decisions made during
this teleconference at this location in the minutes.

Decisions MUST be clear as to their complete intent.  The subject of the
decision should *not* require dereferencing; it is most helpful if
agenda numbers and bug numbers are accompanied by their titles.  If a
decision is recorded about the resolution of a bug, the decision must
state exactly what the resolution is (e.g., "Accept the solution in
comment #5", or "Replace the production for XXX with this: <new
production>", or the like.  It should be possible to read a decision
months later and be certain what it meant and whether or not it was
properly applied.

DECISION:  Accept proposal to treat xs:anyURI as per xs:untypedAtomic 
and xs:string.

DECISION: Specify the decimal format to use when serializing xs:double 
to ensure it is in the lexical space of xs:double.

NEW ACTION ITEMS
================
Note to secretary: Please insert all new action items assigned during
this teleconference at this location in the minutes.

Action items MUST make sense even when they are viewed standalone (that
is, not read in the context of the agenda item where they were
assigned).  This explicitly requires that all referents (e.g., "this",
"that") be made clear.  Action items such as "Ralph to resolve this
problem" are DISALLOWED.  It takes a scribe only a few additional
minutes to ensure that action items are clear, while it takes the entire
WG considerable effort to constantly research the meaning of unclear
action items.  The subject of the action item should *not* require
dereferencing; it is most helpful if agenda numbers and bug numbers are
accompanied by their titles.

ACTION A-654-02: Mike Kay to propose a response to behaviour of

use when serializing xs;double to ensure it is in the lexical space of 
xs:double (Bug 29824).

(none)



J3. Maintenance Issues

J3.0 The XML Query WG and XSLT WG do not intend to maintains specs
earlier than the 3.0 suite of documents; when the 3.1 suite reaches
Recommendation, maintenance of the 3.0 documents will be terminated.

This agenda item is reserved for reporting errors and other problems
reported against the 3.0 (later, 3.1) suite of specifications.

completion delays of XSLT 3.0 if XPath 3.0 is made obsoleted by 3.1

         Any change to the status of the 3.0 specs requires explicit XSL WG
         consultation.

XSLT WG documents
