Notes and Action Items from 11-24-2014 SC Meeting

["Dr. Stanley Doherty" <stan@modularwriting.com>]

Notes:
--------------------------------------------------------------------
1. News from DITA Europe and DITA-OT Day: Lots of interesting
   developments in flight from Europe. Momentum for DITA is 
   definitely visible. Engagement from our European vendor BFFs
   (Oxygen) continues while engagement from new vendors is on the rise 
   (notably in the CCMS space).

2. Whitepaper development:

   a. Release Management - continues to make progress.

3. Information Modeling

   a. Policies and procedures ... Bob distributed his
      first models. Neat! Seeking feedback and collaboration
      partners in the field.

   b. Agile/scrum ... progress as well. To review 
      inventory next meeting.

   c. Semiconductor ... no progress. Need to put on hold 
      pending new, active participants from the industry.
