Notes from NMWG Call on 12 October 2002
(from Dan Gunter)

---

* Mark (Leese) summarized GGF12

* Where do we go from here? new schemas, old schemas..

    - Mark indicated that European groups (Dante, EEG) might want to get
    something out very soon: stable "old" schemas first

    - no other Europeans on call (!)

    - Martin (Swany) proposed that the RPC/Enc -> Doc/Lit transition
    will be more dramatic

    - Dan said that he thought stabilization implied Doc/Lit (Mark said
      he also assumed that)
        o Eric (Boyd) and other implementors said that was OK

    - Mark proposed: Doc/Lit stabilization first, then X months in
      future, release of 'new' schemas

    - Dan brought up GGF document process. Mark & Eric will talk to AD
    about how to get a document out of "version 1" schemas. Dan
    suggested: informational or community practice.

    - Martin promised that he & Dan will have a draft version of the new
    schemas by the end of this week (19 Oct)

* Requirements document

    - Mark said he would look at it again

* Next week:

    - focus on Martin & Dan schemas
