Approved with amendments -Don moves, Scott Hudson
seconds, no objections.

Amendment: Item 3 Action Item 

  From Don Day:
  For the action on the foreign element discussion,
I propose this amendment:

  ACTION: Eric Sirois to provide an updated example
and brief discussion on
  using the class attribute with foreign attributes;
to be incorporated as an
  example into the spec topic for the <foreign>
element.

Amendment: Item 4 correction: 

  From Paul Grosso:
  Clarification to the minutes:

  Instead of "from text to data", we
are removing the "#FIXED"
  indication from the (already CDATA) DITAArchVersion
attribute. 

  More precisely, I'd phrase the decision as
follows:

  DECISION: Robert moves to remove the "#FIXED"
indication from 
  the DITAArchVersion attribute and to include
version-specific 
  FPIs (formal public identifiers) in the catalog.
Scott 
  seconds. No objections.
