Present: -------- Martin Westhead Tara Talbott Bob McGrath Geoff Judd Mike Bekerele Discussion ---------- 1. F2F Agenda The following topics/goals were raised for inclusion on the agenda: Conversions - basics: do we have a common understanding? Do we have consensus as this as a direction? Conversions - does the current proposal sufficiently address our extensibility needs (e.g. arrays, other trackers)? Conversions - can we capture the meaning of the existing properties effectively within this framework. Process - arriving at a clear set of milestones/actions with people attached to them required to reach a standards document. 2. Conversions discussion Geoff raised an issue that he was concerned about ordinary users being exposed to a lot of boiler-plate. Although this could be avoided altogether it was agreed that including a standard definitions file might be a sensible way to do it. Tara wanted to know if the whole stack of conversions could be specified. This seems like a sensible suggestion. It should be straight forward to specify all or even part of the conversion stack.
