2010 Publishing Schedule

All present on the call agreed that skipping the fall 2010 ballot cycle (between the Fall WGM and the Jan 2011 WGM) for version 3 publishing appears reasonable. This applies only to new ballots using the V3 publishing process, reconciliation, CDA, stand-alone documents, version 2.x, and Word based ballot items would be published for ballot as normal.

Normative Edition

Woody had finished a complete build of Normative Edition 2009. The number of errors is within a few pecentage points of the last normative edition. There were 6 additional vocabulary errors. The number of binding errors was consistent. The normative edition was built using RIM 2.21 (from August 2008) and the Vocabulary MIF from February 15, 2009.

Don asked the group if the tentative NE should be posted for review. Austin said yes. Don asked if the group preferred a Zip file or Web based review site. Austin preferred the web-site and there was general agreement.

discussion about inclusion of lab in NE2009

reasons:

• not balloted- recirculation ballot
• no reconciliation deadline
• NE is late
• will investigate
• Austin had been discussing this with the WG
• did not research prior discussions
• don will check with Karen if submitted to ANSI for approval

Austin

Austin had issues with the table view in the ballot. The table was missings all of the cell borders when displayed in IE7 (or the borders were not black). Other attendees did not have the same issue with other browsers. Don was able to duplicate the issue. Austin noted the previous ballot displayed correctly.

Don compared the CSS files from the previous ballot and identified the error. The was a minor (unrequested) change in the stylesheet for the table (possibly from the transform). Don would look at ensuring a fix was in place.

Gregg

Gregg had issues with determining which CMETs, were being balloted. He wondered if it is possible to have work groups clearly define which CMETs are being balloted.

Gregg was informed the V3 Publishing work group scorched earth - norm in CMET and wrapper will continue to publish draft in CMETs will disappear will require list from editor will not remove from SVN
