1. The edits and suggestions made by Judy Brewer and Ian Jacobs the previous weekend were discussed.

2. Most changes were adopted, however, there was discussion as to whether lists of accessibility problems and solutions should be included, rather than the present links to outside resources. It was generally decided that using outside links allows more independence for this guidelines document.

3. Some discussion surrounded the inclusion of XML(a meta language) in the list of example mark-up languages. It was decided that this should be dropped.

4. The issue of prompt timing (ie. when should authors be prompted to make corrections) was discussed.  It was decided that flexibility must be emphasized.

5. Harvey Bingham stated that he should be able to produce the tables module by early to mid November.

6. Karen McCall reported on her conversion module work progress.

7. Ian Jacob's proposed a positive reinforcement checker idea that was discussed. It was decided that the idea should be fleshed out on the mailing list.
