Mike - this looks good to me - let's get draft 37 out then make sure any outstanding items are tracked in this way.

The complexity is that there are 4 mechanisms: "trackers", "tasks", "discussions", and "wiki". Another workgroup I used to participate in (DAIS) appears to have settled on trackers and limited wiki, and I'm not sure about the wiki part. Based on this I kicked off use of the trackers by creating one for us, and adding one item to track which is the lengthKind='bits' action item. Take a look here: http://forge.gridforum.org/sf/go/projects.dfdl-wg/tracker.specification_vers... There is richness here which would allow attachment of draft doc sections, test case files, etc. if needed. One can have many trackers - which are like master organizing categories of items to track. I am not sure it is helpful to have more than one overall containing "tracker". DAIS WG does have more than one, but I suggest we start with only one and add more only if necessary. The DFDL Wiki is hopelessly obsolete. I will delete the bogus content there so that it is at least not misleading.-- dfdl-wg mailing list dfdl-wg@ogf.org http://www.ogf.org/mailman/listinfo/dfdl-wg Unless stated otherwise above: IBM United Kingdom Limited - Registered in England and Wales with number 741598.
