Hi Michel
list for HTTP/1.1)? Or do the WG have to do that themselves? What if WG have dissolved, and errata are discovered afterwards?
On the point of a WG dissolving itself let me add (so that Greg can correct me if I'm wrong) that my understanding is that those listed on the front page of a document (authors/editors) are committing to maintaining it regardless of what happens to the WG.
Thanks. Andreas
Yes, precisely. That's why I urge just a few authors/editor folks on the cover page. For large groups, the suggestion is to just list one to three "Editors," then have a "Contributor" or "Author" section that lists everyone else. In that section, it's appropriate to include little notes about who was really helpful, and even subdivide different types of credits. So, people who just commented on a few paragraphs, or contributed a table, don't necessarily get the same description in the Contributor section. Note that this practice is essentially the same as IETF, though as usual we're more flexible about things than they are :) Once the GGF has a few hundred documents, we'll probably start enforcing tighter standards, too.

Folks,
thanks to Ralf, there is another typo known in the spec.
Though it is not a serious mistake (it is just in an example, after all), I wonder if it is feasible to burden the GGF Editor with all these small nits and bits to update the specs.
To the GGF process experts: Does GGF provide something like a maintained errata list for published specs, similar to the IETF (e.g. an errata list for HTTP/1.1)? Or do the WG have to do that themselves? What if WG have dissolved, and errata are discovered afterwards? Is there a general need to define a process for that?
Cheers, Michel

Hi Michel&Donal,
I just noticed a minor copy/paste bug in the JSDL specs.
In the examples for the Posix extensions -51) there is:
page 50: <jsdl-posix:Input filesystemName="HOME"> output.txt </jsdl-posix:Input>
page 51: <jsdl-posix:Input filesystemName="HOME"> error.txt </jsdl-posix:Input>
it should obviously be: <jsdl-posix:Output filesystemName="HOME"> output.txt </jsdl-posix:Output>
and
<jsdl-posix:Error filesystemName="HOME"> error.txt </jsdl-posix:Error>
Besides that, I like it :-) Ralf
