2.0 Discussion of Last Call Comment Handling

Process
=======

Hendler presented the material in
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-webont-wg/2003Apr/0023.html
(note the above e-mail was *not* available during the telecon).
The parts number II.1, II.2 and II.3 in the e-mail message are referrred
to as (a) (b) (c) in the IRC log.
Discussion and other points that came up included:
There are now strict process rules about making changes to the documents.
Patel-Schneider characterised the difference between (b) and (c) as 
(b) is changes to the wording without changing meaning
(c) is changes to the meaning. 
Connolly characterised the difference as (c) changes test cases or code.

Change Logs
===========

Change logs were discussed.
There was no disagreement with the suggestion that change logs should
be added to the documents to be included in Candidate Rec or Proposed Rec.
There was resistence to listing every typo correction.

Issue Tracker
=============
Connolly presented:
http://www.w3.org/2002/12/open-issues?ml=public-webont-comments&range=1&realm=Public
It regards an issue as a thread on the mailing list.
A closed issue is a thread in which some message starts with "[closed]".
An open issue is a thread that is not closed.
Hendler clarified that issue tracking is still experimental.

Editors Drafts
==============
There was discussion concerning accessibility and visibility of
editors drafts.
Many spoke of the importance of having the LC docs reviewed, and
not an editors draft.
Some wanted the links to the editors drafts to be removed from
the WG homepage. Some wanted the links to the editors draft to
be moved to a different section lower down on the the WG homepage
(or equivalently for the links to the LC docs to be moved up).
No decision was made, and the homepage is left unchanged (to
be reviewed if we get problems).
We agreed to add prominent notices just under the title of every 
editors draft (except Test Cases) to indicate that reviewers should
review the LC document.
ACTION heflin Add second line to editors draft pointing at LC.
ACTION mcguinness Add second line to editors draft pointing at LC.
ACTION dean Add second line to editors draft pointing at LC.
ACTION patel-schneider Add second line to editors draft pointing at LC.
ACTION smith Add second line to editors draft pointing at LC.

Comments from WG members & early Comments
=========================================
The final part of the discussion concerned comments made before
LC on the public comment lists, and comments from WG members.
We decided to ask the early commentors to resend comments sent
before LC.
WG members should not send comments to public-webont-comments
but should continue to discuss technical issues on www-webont-wg.
Hendler: we do want to hear of bugs from WG members.

3.0 BRIEF Discussion of reworking of Guide for "cultural" issues
   3.1 Wine example

ACTION smith use more food examples to augment wine examples

Smith asserted that any replacements will be identical constructs.
