17:10:36 [ArtB]

17:13:31 [andy]
what's the syntax for unmute pls ?
17:13:51 [jcraig]
Zakim, umute Andy_Heath
17:13:51 [Zakim]
I don't understand 'umute Andy_Heath', jcraig
17:13:58 [ArtB]
DS: I tend to think EDs may not necessarily reflect consensus of the group
17:14:12 [ArtB]
… and consensus is for TR versions
17:14:12 [jcraig]
Zakim, unmute Andy_Heath
17:14:12 [Zakim]
Andy_Heath should no longer be muted

… I suggest we start with an ED with some substance
17:15:07 [richardschwerdtfe]
q+
17:15:27 [ArtB]
JS: we have a proposal but no consensus yet
17:15:44 [ArtB]
… what I hear is we can put the proposal in the ED now and mark it as such
17:15:58 [ArtB]
… and state it doesn't reflect consensus
17:16:14 [ArtB]
MC: we need one ED
17:16:22 [ArtB]
… and proposals get put into the wiki
17:16:37 [ArtB]
… not clear how we manage multiple versions
17:16:39 [ArtB]
q+
17:16:58 [ArtB]
DS: can use tags, etc.
17:17:06 [ArtB]
RS: expect multiple specs

17:18:47 [ArtB]
DS: agree
17:19:07 [ArtB]
RS: that's ok with me
17:19:20 [ArtB]
MC: some of James' spec has Events and some is Context
17:19:30 [ArtB]
… I could just put the events part in the Events ED
17:19:49 [janina]

17:20:49 [ArtB]
[ James and Michael talked about how to manage the source code for the Events spec … ]
17:21:27 [ArtB]

17:22:30 [ArtB]
DS: not sure I understand the version issues
17:22:39 [janina]
q?
17:22:42 [ArtB]
… the doc just needs to clearly state the status
17:23:03 [ArtB]
MC: my pref is to use the wiki for docs that don't have consensus
17:23:28 [ArtB]
DS: I expect each Editor to handle the source control work
17:23:36 [jcraig]
s/I understand the version issues/I understand the reluctance to commit a draft that is clearly marked as draft w/o group consensus/
17:23:37 [ArtB]

17:52:58 [ArtB]
… got definitions from a few places
17:53:20 [ArtB]
… PoR definitions are descriptive and not functional
17:53:37 [ArtB]

-[Apple.a]
17:54:43 [ArtB]
