Item	Who	Notes
announcements
calls for papers, submission deadlines, upcoming meetings: Calendar of events		AA: late November in Switzerland will present ARKetype results to: "P-5 Outcomes: Scientific Information Services for All"
Strawman spec collaboration via githup: https://github.com/jkunze/arkspec		JK: stub repo, not yet populated with ARK draft; need to add collaborators MP: github repo looks correct; good to show openness, change history; it also signals that we're interested in others' opinions JK: ok to invite you all as committers? All: agreed
New spec (29) plus diffs 29-28
Action items from last time John Kunze Dave Vieglais Clarify that using a subfolder after the domain and before the ark: is acceptable

Mark Phillips Dave Vieglais Mark will research options for managing a spec through GitHub, Dave will come up with ideas/suggestions and work with Mark on a recommendation.

Dave Vieglais Greg Janée Dave will suggest some text for a section or appendix on best practices for transmitting ARKs in URLs (eg, don't be too strict about %-encoding), Greg will review.

John Kunze Changes to normalization steps. Point #5 in normalization fix “uppercase” and based on team discussion, point 6 on Unicode should be very loose, something that is good to be aware of but more of an implementation choice. Need to determine where to move it to if it is moved from here

John Kunze Spec: reduce number of ways to say Base Name (instead of Name or Base)

First stab at new wording.

TC: will review and comment
TC: will try to come up with EBNF for ARKs

KH, CM, TC: +1 to unicode hyphens
