Agenda
======

Planning for Revision 2.0 a of the spec.

Problem 1 Choosing what to do
=============================

The ChangeLog of record is now at our JCP Wiki [1].  TAnything not in the
"Accepted Changes" section will not be done for 2.0 Rev a.  However, I'm
not convinced that everything that needs to be in that section is in
there.  There are at least two additional data sources to which we
should look to discover issues that should be in the "Accepted changes"
section.  I think we should undertake the following steps to get 2.0 Rev
a done.

A. Clean up the ChangeLog so that it accurately represents everything
that needs to go into 2.0 Rev a in its "Accepted Changes" section

B. Officially file the JCP MR.

C. Do the spec work during the review of the MR.

Task A subtasks

1. The Jsf2ErrataScratchPad [2].  Roger and I must go through this data
source and put content either directly into the spec, or into the
"Accepted changes" section, removing it from the scratchpad as we go.

2. The jsf-spec public issue tracker [3] We need issue captains to go
through all the issues currently targeted for "2.0 Rev a" or
"unscheduled" and make sure they are represented in the ChangeLog.  If
the issue is already in the ChangeLog, great, no additional action is
required.  If the issue is not in the changelog, add it to the "proposed
changes" section.  

3. Roger and Ed make another pass thru the "Proposed Changes" section of
the ChangeLog and move things to "Accepted" or leave them in "Proposed"

Tasks B and C can run in parallel.  I would like to ask for a volunteer
to install FrameMaker so Roger and I can have a helper on doing task C.
Sun owns some FrameMaker licenses, so I assume anyone that might buy
Sun will have access to these as well.  This could mean that Andy,
Blake, or Matthias could step in and help.  Anyone with a FrameMaker 7
license is welcome to be the helper.

Problem 2 Unfinished business from 20091202 meeting
===================================================

I'd like to spend 10 minutes getting an update on the JCP and list
situation, as well as on javaserverfaces.org.

I hope many people can make the meeting!

Ed
