Brad: "What is WG position on not resolving items in Top-25?" BC-Requested Guidance on Policy Dave: "Top-25 issues handled as ballot issues. Should be worked on before other issues. Work on means to come up with a proposal or agree not to work on it" Gord: "Will it be the WG's direction not to work on items outside of Top-25 except for minor errata?" Suggest expanding on Gord's question: What's the policy for working on unprioritized enhancements, bug fixes (ambiguities or implementations diverge, contradictions, etc.) or editorial changes? Some discussion about effort estimates. Shalom: 2289 looks like minor issue. Shalom: 1251 looks like minor issue. Dave: 1144 looks like minor issue once consensus reached. Shalom: Should map the BC result with Feb meeting. Matt: Coverage looks pretty good. AI: Matt to include mapping of Top-25 to Feb meeting in WG presentation Matt: Will communicate to WG that BC requires more time to analyze and respond about effort estimates and that most issues appear non-trivial. AI: Matt & Brad create presentation of Top-25 for 1800 WG Tom: What are next steps? Dave: PAR will take 3 months Gord: Could begin informal work: effort estimates, general direction, etc. Shalom: Can work on clarification Shalom: What about connection to Analog? Believe it to be better handled in a separate sub-committee or WG. Matt: Agreed. AI: Include in presentation. Brad: When is next meeting. Matt: May 24th. Dave: Continue bi-weekly cadence until further notice. Matt: Agreed. Brad moves to adjourn. Mark seconds.
