QA Working Group -- I'd like your thoughts about this idea. Borrowing again from WAI, I wrote a transformation to generate a "checklist" from the Process & Operational Guidelines (P&O). See [1]. This was a quick prototype, so please excuse its plainness (crudeness?). Two things occur to me. Firstly, this ought to be a regular feature of the "XXX Guidelines" parts of Framework. Secondly, we ought to apply this checklist to the test activities of a few of the WGs. I think this would have several benefits: 1.) It will help us refine and debug P&O Guidelines (and the other pending guidelines parts as well). 2.) It might facilitate us getting feedback on the various Framework "XXX Guidelines" parts (only P&O for now) from the WGs. 3.) The results of the exercise might actually be useful to the WGs (for us to do the exercise of filling out a checklist). Thoughts? If there is interest in the idea, then we should discuss how to do it and when. Maybe various QAWG members could each take a WG-TS that they are familiar with (or not), and execute the checklist for that WG? About timing ... are we too close to Cannes to make significant progress by then (e.g., for feedback to the WGs)? Would it be better, from an archival and WG/IG discussion perspective, to do the exercise and then communicate with the WG over email? -Lofton.
