>> proposal question
>> {*} https://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/dita/201308/msg00009.html
>> Stan gave overview; (Tom Cihak came on later, after having had some
>>trouble
>> connecting) Tom & he SC identified areas that have architectural
>>issues (e.g.
>> what's a list vs. an editable list? should the information be in
>>booklists, or
>> a tight little specialization of prolog?)
>> - Kris; is SC now thinking in terms of a smaller proposal?
>> - TomC; the plan is to specialize prolog, plus put in a placeholder for
>> elements that aren't processed by the DITA-OT, but could be harvested
>> downstream by a processor. Booklists was suggested, but booklists are
>> published in the document, and this content ordinarily wouldn't be.
>> - Eliot; anything done for this shouldn't be specific to bookmap,
>>should work
>> for maps generally.
>> - Don; notes need to be collected where they lie or in some gathering
>>place.
>> - Joann; one of our major use cases was medical devices; those
>>manufacturers
>> have to create a report on every note within their documents.
>> - TomC; we're doing same thing in Frescale; we're currently collecting
>>notes
>> in separate topics, but would prefer the changes to be within the
>>actual topic
>> - Kris; thanks to the SC for the work on the proposal; note that within
>>the
>> 1.3 schedule, it's coming late to the TC as a whole.
>> - Don; the problem is really in 2 parts, which we need to separate in
>>order to
>> make progress.
>> 1. is there a complete way to indicate metadata?
>> 2. how do we indicate collection and use of that metadata?
>> - Joann asked for a vote on the proposal.
>> - Kris; a complete version of the proposal hasn't been fully discussed
>>by the
>> TC, so we can't yet vote on it. Depending on how quickly the proposal
>>could be
>> completed and brought before the TC, it might or might not make it into
>>1.3.
>> Other important functionality - e.g. Lightweight DITA - has already been
>> separated from 1.3.
>> - Don; Let's we give this proposal one extra week to get completely
>>cleaned
>> up. - Kris; We can do that, but we need to avoid putting 'half-baked
>>stuff'
>> into 1.3; we're still feeling the impact of having done that at 1.2.
>> - Don; It could alternatively be put out as 'committee notes' or third
>>party
>> specializations
>> - Kris; As dita grows, we have to draw lines between standard and
>>secondary
>> specializations.
>> ActionItem; all TC members; please look at this proposal very carefully
>>
>>
>> NEW ITEM
>> Eliot asked about the process for stage 3 proposals that are finished,
>>in
>> terms of submitting them to KAVI. Kris and Robert will invetigate this
