Resolutions

• remove link to draft DTD from Core (we will publish an XML Schema generated from the asn06 in the 2cnd WD)
• Remove anonymous variables from CORE
• Equal aggregates 2 Terms (one association with multiplicity = 2 in Core condition language diagram)

• AND and OR will be 0-or-more argument operators (it's a conventional treatment: (and)=>T and (or)=>F)

• use UML to help people visualize our abstract syntax. We'll say "these are graphical views of the abstract syntax using UML notation" (not metamodels and not ontologies)

• UML diagram for Core condition language stays in WD1 but with ?NamedElement and PSort removed

• Use diagram in http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-rif-wg/2007Feb/0134, in Core WD1, labeled "still under discussion"

• The concrete human-readable syntax, described in BNF, is: work in progress and under discussion. (It was already resolved as being For Illustrative Purposes Only).

• the xmlns to use for WD1 is "http://www.w3.org/2007/01/rif#"

• Any sort defined in Core MUST BE identified by a URI.
• replace uri with rif:URI in WD1 and link to issue (to be opened).
• keep text in draft which changes datatype list from charter by replacing xsd:int with xsd:integer.
• to publish Core WD1, if ACTIONS assigned in this meeting so far are done to our satisfaction. (That is, no new issues should arise to block publication of Core WD1)
