The result will be Shadi's w3c Editors Draft which we will then conform to normal w3c operating processes as he suggests. If we are spending way too much ti 16:38:42 each paragraph we will timebox them as per Peter's suggestions. 16:38:57 ack dropbox 16:39:02 ack gio 16:39:11 giorgio: we might have a problem with sharing the document 16:39:43 sharper: we could also have it as a public dropbox url 16:40:05 giorgio: OK I'll make it public 16:40:55 markel: we can make it public tomorrow 16:40:59 RESOLVED: All: the general plan is to move from w3c convention slightly as this is a special case - let us all read the document within 2 weeks, then at the meeting in two weeks move through paragraph by paragraph raising any issues, discussing them, and reaching consensus - then move that paragraph into HTML format.
