The maintenance of the base specification will be conducted primarily by by e-mail, while the topics for con calls primarily will be new features. Regarding maintenance, several option have been discussed for con calls: 2a) There will be separate con calls for maintenance topics. These con calls will be schedules on demand. 2b) There will be separate con calls for maintenance topics with a predefined schedule. For instance, the first con call in a month might be reserved for maintenance topics. 2c) There will not be separate con calls for maintenance topics. If there are maintenance topics that need a discussion or voting in a con call, they will be scheduled for one of the next con calls. Within this con call, maintenance topics will be discussed at the beginning. The TC unanimously agreed to option 2c, that is, the TC will not be divided into sub committees. Maintenance topics will be discussed primarily by e-mail, but also at the beginning of the con calls. Schedule -------- The TC unanimously agreed to keep the schedule of phase 1, that is to have weekly conference calls. Preparation of phase 2 topics ----------------------------- The TC discussed how the discussion of new features should be prepared. Unlike as in phase 1, where the OpenOffice.org specification was used as basis for discussions, there are no such specifications existing for the phase two topics. The TC agreed that the phase 2 topics each have to be prepared by a TC member (for instance by creating a specification proposal) and that only the topics will be discussed where such a preparation exists. All TC members have been asked to identify the topics they would like to prepare, together with a date when the preparation might be available.
