John: Bassam said so many action items to bugzilla were hard.
18:18:59 [Paul_L]
Marv: (taking us through process/proposal)... at URL above
18:19:41 [Paul_L]
Marv: Editorial group committed to bugzilla
18:20:06 [Paul_L]
Marv: transcribing AI's to bugzilla hard and unnecessary
18:20:36 [Paul_L]
Marv: Alternative proposal: all editorial action items go directly to bugzilla
18:20:55 [Paul_L]
Marv: other AIs in meetings sill are action items (see email)
18:21:22 [Paul_L]
??: What is an editorial change
18:21:42 [Paul_L]
Marv: A change to the candidate standard (the text?)
18:21:58 [johnarwe]
s/??/Kumar/
18:22:27 [Paul_L]
Marv: Suggestion: If it's not clear that it is editorial change, then make it an AI But we don't have to be doctrinaire.
18:23:02 [Paul_L]
Kumar: Why not bugzilla for everything?
18:23:34 [Paul_L]
Marv: We have convenient mechanism for AIs while talking. Bugzilla better for workflow and editorial.
18:23:55 [Paul_L]
Phillipe: Who is in charge of entering bug issues
18:24:16 [Paul_L]
Marv: Whoever knows the most about it is responsible.
18:24:23 [plh]
s/Phillipe/Philippe/
18:25:10 [Paul_L]
Paul: Who decides if confusing?
18:25:43 [Paul_L]
Marv: Let the chair decide. If experts disagree, let them both make an entry. Editors will look at it and resolve it (worst case).
18:26:17 [Paul_L]
John: Or, let them decide amongst themselves who's doing it (we're friendly).
18:27:11 [Paul_L]
Paul: Simple answer? Work it out casually and chair only sets it to a person when not clear who took it.
18:27:26 [Paul_L]
John: sure
18:28:18 [Paul_L]
Resolution: We are all in agreement on above approach
18:29:12 [Paul_L]
Action: Marvin to update his email and submit updated process to group
18:29:12 [trackbot-ng]
Created ACTION-106 - Update his email and submit updated process to group [on Marvin Waschke - due 2007-07-26].

MSM: the keywords field can be extended by people with proper authority.
18:30:39 [Brian]
Brian has joined #sml
18:30:51 [Paul_L]
MSM: Each group that wants to use keywords to track things has added or repurposed keywords.
18:32:50 [Paul_L]
MSM: Working groups end up with different conventions. Don't worry about what has gone before.
18:33:04 [Paul_L]
John: Expressed some surprise.
18:33:51 [Paul_L]
John: Ginny you found list. Did you have anything in mind?
18:34:03 [MSM]
XML Schema WG uses the keyword system described at http://www.w3.org/XML/Group/2005/09/xmlschema-bugzilla-ug.html

MSM describing how bugzilla issues "evolve"
18:39:22 [Paul_L]
Virginia: Do you have to hunt in the spec or what?
18:40:41 [Paul_L]
MSM: In schema WG, editors draft wording. Produce versin of spec with things marked up. Put it on server and send proposal email to WG saying this is our proposal to fix bug #n. Never got in habit of going into bugzilla. Go into archive to look at msgs from editors.
18:41:09 [Paul_L]
MSM: They never mix bug fixes in same proposal
18:41:23 [Paul_L]
MSM: They use colored diffs.
18:41:50 [Paul_L]
MSM: Label the changes in the XML source by hand (fairly manual).
18:42:12 [Paul_L]
Ginny: some concern about difficulty. Heavy for our simpler spec.
18:42:37 [Paul_L]
John: Import HTML into word type approach could be an alternative.
18:43:34 [Paul_L]
MSM: Smaller stuff is just described into bugzilla.
18:44:00 [Paul_L]
Kumar: How do you pick parts to be changed?
18:44:36 [Paul_L]
MSM: In schema, if change is simple, then a comment in bugzilla (editor) will say something and give new text. But, it's up to us.
18:45:00 [Paul_L]
Ginny: question1
18:46:16 [Paul_L]
MSM described other alternatives schema WG considered but rejected
18:46:52 [Paul_L]
Kumar: Is there a tool that creates diff as a file?
18:47:28 [Paul_L]
MSM: Many tools. They all have problems, but you can adapt.
18:48:09 [Paul_L]
Philippe: We have a diff at XYZ1
18:48:55 [Paul_L]
MSM: When editors prepare a diff, they get an HTML with coloring in his experience.
18:49:59 [Paul_L]
Ginny: we have a method now from Philippe
18:51:34 [Paul_L]
Ginny: Propose that we don't implement anything until after first public working draft.
18:52:19 [Paul_L]
Ginny: afterwards add more process.
18:52:30 [Paul_L]
Ginny: first working draft end of this month

John: first public working draft we do one diff
18:54:10 [Zakim]
+Kirk
18:54:14 [Paul_L]
John: Afterwards, we will end up with "two-headed process" simpler changes same as before and more complicated changes would be rendered as a diff.
18:54:35 [Paul_L]
Kumar: can somebody send info on how to create diff?
18:55:06 [Paul_L]
Action for Virginia send Kumar on how to create diff
18:55:42 [johnarwe]
Action: Virginia to send Kumar on how to create diff

18:59:58 [Paul_L]
MSM: Apologies. No progress. Hope to address later today.
19:00:37 [Paul_L]
Kumar: I will talk to Bassam. He or I will follow up.
19:01:31 [Paul_L]

19:03:22 [Paul_L]
John: Only one that I started (4865)
19:04:25 [Paul_L]
John: AI to propose new wording on what it means to propose reference scheme. It's involved. It's a P2, so please read for later discussion or turns up. Existing text was hard to understand and he rewrote paragraphs.
19:04:46 [Paul_L]
Kirk: What about Paul Grasso objection about xpointer scheme?
19:05:12 [Paul_L]
John: Had discussions in IBM. Digitial sig ran into this.
19:05:40 [Paul_L]
Philippe: We are not an existing spec so we can't say it's already there.
19:06:22 [Paul_L]
John: if goal is element level references, there are alternatives, but they are less elegent.

19:09:00 [Paul_L]
John: Intent was editors would look at list and bring to attention any worthy of discussion
19:09:22 [Paul_L]
Ginny: Didn't see agenda, but has a few things
19:10:51 [Paul_L]
Ginny: 4617 and 4651 need discussion. 4658 and 4753 are moved to P1. 4658 was dup of another one. Dup closed. 4743 made P1 is dependent on another bug. All others OK as I can see. 4693 (john to talk to Milan)
19:11:17 [Paul_L]
John: Move 4693 out of 1st public into non-public p2 first working draft.

John: 4651... Definition of consumer...
19:19:32 [Jim]
Jim has joined #sml
19:19:37 [Paul_L]
Ginny: Are we trying to specify what consumers must do with sML-if doc? What does the wording really say here?
19:20:35 [Paul_L]
John: Do we agree on this def?
19:21:11 [Paul_L]
Ginny: Related bug ("add text in section 3.2 ...). Places a specific requirement on consumers. Are we going to do that?
19:21:57 [Paul_L]
John: We need to cover validators, but all consumers are not validators.
19:22:11 [Paul_L]
Ginny: Validator is an instance of a consumer (not only one)
19:22:52 [Paul_L]
John: So do we change def of consumers to be validators or what?
19:23:20 [Paul_L]
Ginny: both approaches are valid
19:23:50 [Paul_L]
John: This applies to both specs.
19:24:16 [Paul_L]
Ginny: Why put any requirements on general consumers?
19:26:14 [Paul_L]
Discussion about if we are talking about anything more than validators
19:30:05 [Paul_L]
??: These distinctions are getting much more involved than first thought

19:38:26 [Paul_L]
MSM: Just focus on terms more tactically, perhaps, if we can't help people more.
19:39:22 [Paul_L]
Ginny: proposal to focus on things that actually mean something in spec. Come back later to add terms and other things that can help readers of the spec more.
19:39:46 [Paul_L]

19:45:15 [Paul_L]
Ginny: suggest no bugzilla
19:45:27 [Paul_L]
John: Then how do we consider readers of the spec?
19:45:37 [Paul_L]
Ginny: Editoral process supports this
19:46:16 [Paul_L]
John: Concern on losing this. Need to put ourselves in other people's shoes and don't want to forget
19:47:54 [Paul_L]
