This was discussed briefly at the previous meeting, perhaps un-minuted.

The meeting notes for Jan 29th have a section where ecmarkup/down is
introduced and discussed somewhat, but there's no decision regarding its use.

The basic plan is to develop the spec on GitHub, using [Ecmarkup] and
[Ecmarkdown]. It will take pull requests, have a master branch that you
can view (and implementers should view, to see any bug fixes made since
the Ecma version), etc.

Cool. That should improve some processes.

Brian did a prototype conversion a while back, based on an older draft
and an older dialect of Ecmarkup (no Ecmarkdown); you can find that at
https://github.com/bterlson/ecmascript. I believe the current status it
that we're waiting for the "final" GA-submitted version before doing the
real conversion, since Allen is making editorial tweaks and bug-fixes up
until the deadine. Once that's done we'll use some mutated version of
Jason's [converter] and start iterating and tweaking from there.

I'll probably volunteer to check the result, since I have a converter that's
independent of Jason's. (It starts with the PDF rather than the docx.)


Unlike the current process, the post-ES2015 spec process requires two
shipping implementations before a feature is integrated into the spec.
While we're waiting for that, we anticipate proposal documents to
prepare for integration by being written as Ecmarkup/Ecmarkdown spec
deltas,

So not as git branches of the spec?
