<jkline> keep dropping

david: submitted final changes to WAI initiative. A few editorial back and forth, snag on pull requests, wait a couple of days and publication next week.

david: wide review in the next few days, blast it out to everyone. Let people get their eyes on it, we want feedback. Then we can work on the issues and knock out fast and formally published before TPAC and present then. Think we can do it.

david: Roy says everything good to go on his end, other than some formalities

Janina: expecting publication on tuesday when moratorium ends

Janina: are we meeting next Wed?

David: week we publish we don't need to meet. Then perhaps following week we meet and talk about comments receiving. Maybe every other week, see how things are going.

Janina: 10th and again on the 24th and then Oct 1 we're back to work. If there are filed github issues we'll know by the for sure and work on them quickly.

Janina: timeline is gated by if we get issues filed. Need to handle those.

David: oct 1 or 8 is our goal for CFC for Maturity Model

Charles: ask Jason White to review

Janina: I've done that already

David: looking forward to his comments

jeff: when comments in github, we make a determination if something is a Must Fix or defer to next release?

David: Yes, we make a determination. Once CFC goes, people can object if they choose to.

Janina: CFC objection is from APA members (FYI), CFC goes to APA members
