Mike, I think the agenda looks good, it covers just about everything we have discussed at one time or another and not closed on. The only thing I would like to add is for me to quickly go over the IBM model concept of 'Data Element Separation' which is the model group property we have that governs the rules that apply to the children of that group. It fits into the discussion on parser behaviour. I'd like to make the team aware of the concept, even if we subsequently decide that it is not needed.

This ppt should be openable in open-office and MS Office. Please put suggestions for reordering, topics you'd like to add, topics you think are higher/lower priority, and so forth and send back to me. I'll attempt to coalese into a unified "next spin" on the agenda and I'll repost it at that time. ...mikeb (See attached file: f2f-2005-05-agenda.ppt)
