Status updates on issues 194, 199, 201, 204

js: 194, proposal in?

jf: plan to work on that before the weekend

js: don't expect major surprises at this point, media sub-team has discussed the points

and have accommodated Apple concerns

hope to move to single proposal, but don't know yet

199, waiting to hear from Ted

chairs have a priority order on these?

pc: expecting 201 to be partially fulfilled by last night

have a timeline in the public archive

Ted promised 22 June for 199 and 201

a further week from him for 199, was pending Silvia's input which is now in

204 expected for 6 July

jf: talked with Ted at hackathon last week, similar info on his timelines

exploring MAY language, need to look at that more

Issue 203?

js: any last-minute counter-proposals?

pc: haven't checked yet, don't see anything

jf: don't see any

pc: should we focus a meeting on closing out some of these items?

concerned there was a peak of activity during and after the FtF

but now it's drying up

understand there's lots of work going on

but could be good to focus efforts

rs: hoping for faster responses to emails

pc: working on getting busy people looped in

have various concrete steps in play towards that

js: should we handle these issue by issue?

pc: yes, because they're not same sub-sets of people across the issues

js: I'll pursue getting some sessions set up with relevant parties for the issues

rs: FtF tend to have lots of energy, then it flags afterwards

js: so virtual FtF on topics may help

pc: trying very hard to get everybody together

jf: I have specific action on 204 to rework language, think it's relatively minor and can be cleaned up in next week or so

for 194, we should do another call, can help with that

js: for 204, John, Cynthia, Ted, Jonas

201, Rich, Frank, Ted

199, Michael, Ted

194, Janina, John, Silvia, Ted, Eric, Charles?

I will work to schedule 194 discussion

pc: believe 204 is in TF hands, awaiting consensus?

jf: that's pretty close

the clock has run out

just down to a bit of RFC2199 language details

js: anybody can propose MAY language, it's MUST and SHOULD that makes consensus more difficult

jf: so just chasing that stuff down

think consensus is emerging

pc: we need to put something down soon, if not go to survey

jb: thought we had stated what would be acceptable

pc: would like a clear indication of whether you think gulf is too wide and go to survey

jb: think it's about whether requirements met or not

js: does MAY solve this?

various: maybe

pc: don't want to wait indefinitely when don't see activity

so, what's the deadline?

if waiting on a middle ground, can put down yourselves, not just wait for someone else

js: think JF has that on his plate

jf: I will rewrite draft by 25 June

after that, ball will be on Ted and Jonas to review

might go to survey if they don't like that version

think they will accept, but they need to see the specifics

jb: couldn't we just go to survey now?

js: if it gets surveyed, other issues muddy it

pc: there's a message from Maciej Monday, looks like a thread was hard to follow

jb: so JF proposal for next steps seems optimal now

js: JF, please make wiki "version 4"
