Regarding 5.a., Would anyone like to hazard a guess as to when 5.1 will be an official standard?

Roll call Present: Dick Hamilton, Jirka Kosek, Larry Rowland, Bob Stayton Regrets: Scott Hudson, Norm Walsh Absent: Loren Cahlander 2. Accepted the minutes [1] of the previous (August) meeting. 3. Next meeting: 17 December 2014 No regrets. 4. Review of the agenda. No additions. 5. Review of open action items a. Norm to work with OASIS to advance DocBook 5.1 to OASIS Standard. CONTINUED b. Norm to convince someone to implement the new XInclude standard. CONTINUED c. Bob to integrate publishers XSL into DocBook XSL. CONTINUED d. Bob to work with Norm to request Oxygen to implement XInclude 1.1. CONTINUED e. Bob to add discussion of "DocBook Transclusions" to the next agenda. COMPLETED 6. Publisher's and eLearning subcommittee reports No report. 7. XInclude 1.1 status. XMLMind is planning to implement XInclude 1.1, which will give the W3C a second implementation that they need for final adoption. Jirka reported that the XInclude 1.1 proposal was changed slightly [2]. This update will change the name of the proposed attribute db:id to set-xml-id. Another change is in specifying local attributes, but that change is still under discussion. 8. Jirka's "DocBook Transclusions" document We discussed Jirka's document[3] and suggested several changes: a. Change @db:id to @set-xml-id per the changed XInclude 1.1 spec. b. Any attributes used by XInclude but not valid in DocBook5 should be stripped out of the resolved document after processing. c. Change id prefix to id suffix. d. Set the default value for db:linkscope to "near". e. Include @linkend, @xlink:href (local), and olink @targetptr in id fixup process. f. For nested XIncludes, the XInclude attributes are inherited. Any nested db:suffix values are chained. g. Remove "strip" value from possible values of @db:idfixup. h. Propose separate new namespace for idfixup/suffix/linkscope attributes in order to make it possible to use transclusions outside of DocBook. ACTION: Jirka to update the document with these changes. 9. DocBook 5.1 release We discussed Norm's proposed DocBook 5.1 Committee Specification Draft. Jirka would like to include the W3C Internationalization Tag Set [5] as an optional but official DocBook schema. Jirka also noted that some other schemas mentioned in changelog are missing, for example RDFa Lite. ACTION: Jirka to summarize and contact Norm about changing the spec to include additional schemas. 10.
