Chet, the DITA TC used to use this mechanism in the pre-2008 time
frame. It's extremely painful to try and navigate in the calendar
back that far ...

Hello chairs,Â
My thanks to Jim Amsden of the OSLC TCs for alerting me to
the utility of the minutes field on your TC event page.Â
When you create an event on your TC calendar, you'll see
fields for a description of the event (typically used for
meeting details) and the agenda.Â
Once the event has been created, if you choose the modify
option, you will see an additional field for minutes. (See
OASIS-event-page.png attached.)Â
If you enter your meeting minutes there, they will be
permanently associated with the meeting itself. (See
OASIS-event-page-minutes.png attached.)Â
In addition, saving the event will automatically send an
email to the TC mailing list with the minutes included. So you
will get the extra benefit of having your minutes searchable
in the email archive.Â
The only disadvantage I see is that if you delete the event
series, the minutes will be lost along with the old meeting
entries. However, the record will still exist in the archive.Â
Also, a reminder that the TAB's Best Practices for Meeting
Minutes can be read atÂhttp://docs.oasis-open.org/templates/TCHandbook/Best-practices-for-meeting-minutes-v1.0.html.Â
As always, let me know if you have any questions.Â
