Work required to get a working draft of the spec out

Now that we have a new template from TC Admin, we can move ahead
    with producing a working draft (which is the first step in the OASIS
    process).

    

    In order to produce a working draft, we'll need to decide the
      following:

    

    Output formats

    If we do what we did for 1.2, we'll have:

    
      
(Required) HTML on OASIS Web site (authoritative)

      
(Required) PDF

      
(Required) DITA in a ZIP

      
CHM in a ZIP

      
HTML optimized for local installation in a ZIP

    
    
Packages

      We've talked about delivering the following:

    

    
      
Base

      
Technical content

      
Everything (need a better name)

    
    
Then we'll need to perform the following work

    

    
      
Update cover and notices topic to match the template that
        OASIS provided (work underway by Eberlein)

      
Update style sheets to match the new OASIS template, including
        footer information

      

      
Identify and correct glitches in current transformations. I'm
        currently aware of the following problems:

      

      
        
Numbering is off; it starts at 2 rather than 1

        
The styling of the link previews in the CHM is ugly;
          unnecessary big black line + no padding for box around link
          previews

      
    
    
We need a volunteer for the style sheet and transformation work
      ...

      Best,
