The Minutes of March 24, 2009 TC meeting
were accepted without revision.
Agenda:
1.) Review, TC Action Item plan: http://wiki.oasis-open.org/odf-adoption/OdfAdoptionTcActionItems
- Don, All
a. Communications Matrix review
* Marino confirmed he will draft the
ODF 1.2 Brochure for review April 21.
* Don confirmed he will outline and
begin to draft the technical paper and presentation for ODF 1.2 for review
April 21.
b. Events Plan review
* Don raised the possibility of submitting
a proposal for the O'Reilly 'Government 2.0 Summit' conference, Sep 9 -
11, Washington, D.C.
This conference is by Invitation Only.
A Call for Participation is seeking short 10 minute case studies.
The TC members discussed the need to
position ODF as a Web standard alongside XForms, HTML, etc. ODF XML has
a unique relationship for both client and server side Web models. TC members
agreed that a short positioning paper is needed. Action item added.
The TC members agreed to work via the
open mailing list to develop the proposal for submission by the April 28th
deadline. See http://www.gov2summit.com/gov2009/public/cfp/67
...for CFP details.
* Bart informed the TC that he has accepted
an invitation for a keynote address to an open source/open systems conference
in Zagreb, Croatia in May. This (3) day conference will be conducted half
in English and half in Croatian. Bart will send the url and additional
information on this event to the TC members.
2.) ODF Toolkit Union - Status report
- Rob
* Rob updated the TC on the progress
of the ODFDOM project within the ODF Toolkit Union. Good progress is being
achieved. The Working Group for ODFDOM convened Monday, April 6th at 09:00
hrs. EDT. Representatives from Sun, IBM and individual open source developers
convened by teleconference to discuss and plan the project work in more
detail. It was agreed to deliver a '0.7' release at the beginning of May
(approximately +1 month). This release will be stable and usable. Rob indicated
that there are no pre-defined items that comprise a 'V1.0', or a 'complete'
ODF Toolkit. Instead, the community members are mapping 'dot releases'
moving across the 2009 calendar. Each 'dot release' will provide an expansion
in functionality.
Michael Brauer discussed the status
of he ODF Validator code hosted on the ODFToolkit.org development site.
He will be improving the packaging of the code and documenting how to download
the appropriate jar files. The TC discussed the concept of 'definitive
Validation' and agreed that the work of the OIC TC is needed to provide
the authoritative definitions of ODF conformity. Michael indicated
that the validation code will be updated to reflect the latest definitions
of ODF Conformance levels as approved by the OASIS ODF TC. For reference
see: http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/office/200903/msg00112.html
3.) ODF Interoperability and Conformance
TC: Status report - Bart
* Bart continues to work on test cases;
work is ongoing. The OIC TC meets tomorrow, April 8th at 9:30 a.m. EDT.
UTC 13:30 hrs.
4.) ODF Alliance: Status report - Marino
* Marino announced he accepted an invitation
to speak at the Informatics Association of Turkey' Public Sector IT Manager's
event in Antalya on April 10 (http://www.kamu-bib.org/bimy/).
This is a follow-up to the ODF Pretoria Workshop in which Turkish parliamentarians
participated. At the Apr 10 event representatives from all parties will
be present withIT directors from government (both technical and policy
makers). The plan is to officially launch the ODF Alliance in Turkey at
this time.
5.) ODF in Education - Louis
* Louis described his proposal to develop
a program for 'ODF in Education'. The concept requires curricula development
centered on programming, XML with a focus on ODF XML. 'Teach ODF' would
follow on to the concepts of programming and XML technologies. The ODF
Toolkit might play a role here as well. Louis agreed to take the action
to define this program concept in more detail. A 'next step' will be to
contact the HFOSS community at Trinity College, Hartford, Connecticut,
USA, and individuals at Seneca College in Canada. Louis will report status
on our next TC call, April 21.
6.) ODF News / Round Table --
All
* Time expired, and no round table was
conducted.
The meeting was adjourned.
Respectfully submitted,
