Scribe for Minutes - Krishna Sankar

2. Agenda review, call for AOB

3. Approval of minutes from 7-Feb-2001 Telecon

4. Review action items

5. Spec Document & Issues List (Hugo,Henrick)

Issues List
Henrick : Has the issues list. Plans to make it available as a separate
issues list document which will describe and track the issues

Paul suggested an XML based issues list and using XSLT to embed this.
XMLQuery and Schema folks are using this method.
Paul to demo this to Henrik. Editor and Chair decision.

A question was raised about the timeframe for this issues list
David Fallside : It should be ready for review at the f2f which means it
must be ready by next Monday (to be on the f2f agenda)

6. Include SOAP Issues in our issues List (David F)

David Fallside proposed that we include the current issues list from SOAP
into our issues list. We will deal with them appropriately as other issues.
There are about 25 issues - some editorial and others technical.

Krishna : What happens to the SOAP list after we add it to our issues list
?
David : We will close that list and replace it with a a pointer to our
issues list (which will be available on xml-dist-app).
Krishna : Are we taking ownership of the issues ?
David : Yes.
Poll of the WG indicated unanimous agreement
Henrick to append the SOAP issues, close the SOAP list and add a pointer to
our issue list

List of New Action Items

Henrik
Include rewording of DS805 and 807 in the requirements document.
Henrik
Include the SOAP issue list to the issue list generated by the comparison to the XML Protocol requirements.
Henrik
Make a note on the SOAP issues list that it is now being maintained by the XML Protocol WG and refer to the new list. Also point out that the mailing list is xml-dist-app.
