Minutes

Markus, Matt in discussions with IFLA for metadata design -- expect it in a future iteration. Should know more in a week.

Discussion item: For NewsML, for example, are we to adopt the content as an island, or do a transformation to a DAISY version of news/magazine markup? Currently, transformations to in-house formats and/or DTBook are being done (RNIB, Vision Australia, DBB), but not sure that it is ideal.

Discussion item: how does our use of XHTML2 depend on the status of that working group? Need to contact the XHTML working group (after they return from this week's W3C technical plenary).

Subgroup reports

RDF

(Boris and Marisa)

  • Did some exploratory work and will have a report next week.
  • Markus reminds: the goals are to have a first-pass at describing a page number role and also a list of questions.

Docs/Schema

(Markus and Per)

  • RNG and NVDL examples are in the SVN sandbox
  • Able to restrict XHTML
  • Able to add the element pagenum
  • Note that this group is waiting for technical details about "role".

Next iteration

The first iteration is done on Oct 31st. What for the next iteration? Here are some ideas:

  • Come up with a recommendation of how to proceed with modularization.
  • Proper leisure book profile
  • Periodicals profile
  • Sketch of profile-making guidelines.

This seems like a potentially long iteration; need to re-scope. Maybe something 6 weeks starting Nov 1.

Next call: Monday Oct 27 2008, 1300 UTC.
