Re: Minutes from Thursday night meeting

[Konstantin Beznosov <beznosov@baptisthealth.net>]

Hi all,

To clearly:
During the meeting, we decided not to invest the submitters team resources in
the investigation and debates on the admin interfaces BEFORE THE INITIAL
SUBMISSION.

It was the majority vote to keep the admin interfaces proposed by 2AB for the
initial submission. It does not mean, as far as I understand, that the
submitters decided to have exactly these interfaces in the final spec. After we
resolve other more critical issues and have the initial submission on the
table, we might go back to the question of admin interfaces. I'll record the
issue of the admin interfaces in the issues list so that we all remember that
the issue is outstanding.

Now, we really need to concentrate on putting the initial submission text
together.
