SCHEDULE REVIEW

    TM: Spent time with PLB today bringing together the TSC and PSC
    common library spreadsheets.  Some editing remains to be done,
    but we now have a single merged 2.1 common library.  All
    further changes to the common library will be done to the
    single master copy and made by the editor, Arianna Brutti of
    ENEA.  The common library supports all 32 new document types,
    for a total of 63; the total number of BIEs now exceeds 2000
    (somewhere in the neighborhood of 2100).

    Scheduling: The goal is to have spreadsheets ready for SGTG on
    Monday 25 January and schemas ready for review at the meeting
    in Copenhagen.

    Codelists: A remaining task for the coming weeks and the
    meeting in Copenhagen is to identify each list needing a
    genericode realization and to identify the code values or
    sources for the code values.

    Documentation: The content subcommittees are at work on
    sections of the business context documentation (see also
    tracking notes below).

    JB: Other scheduling reports:

     - Still no announcement of the two recently approved Committee
       Specifications.  ACTION: JB to ping OASIS.

     - If no objections are received by Friday, we will have formed
       the Portuguese Localization Subcommittee.
