1. Review of action items

2. Discusison of issue #18
Asir reported back on discussions with his developers: (a) multiref w/
frefs requires 2 pass, (b) frefs are not required for anything, (c) frefs
might be a sep issue, (d) ???

PaulC's developers disagreed, (a) that 2 passes are required, (b) frefs are
not required for cyclic graphs

ETF agreed to propose resolution of issue #18 by represent multirefs as
embedded elements rather than as separate elements.
