10 minsPreview of ToIP Deliverable Style GuideScott Perry
  • Scott will show what our first ToIP Approved Deliverables look like based on the new style guide he has developed for the Communications Committee.
  • Scott has developed the Style Guide based on graphic design guidelines from Peter Stoyko at Elanica.
  • Comments:
    • Karen Hand: Is there a reason the text is in red? I know for colour blind individuals this is an issue.
    • Nicky Hickman: Might be useful to think about print versions that is black and white only - easier and less costly for those that want to print. Would also recommend an accessibility review and guidelines - e.g. alt text for pictures.
    • Karen Hand: The White Paper Task Force (WPTF) Author Guideline is to provide guidance on how to write, what the contents should cover, what is a whitepaper, etc.. We were leaving the format or publication format to the CC. There are definitely elements here we were considering for WPTF.
    • Nicky Hickman: Maybe we could add the accessibility piece to the HXWG agenda, I think there could be some issues with the colour of the body text for easy of reading on the eyes (contrast issues and also colour blind issues (1 in 12 men are colour blind).
10 minsGSWG Terms WikiDrummond Reed
  • The time has come to create a terms wiki for all our glossary terms
  • We need to decide whether GSWG needs its own, or whether we will contribute to a ToIP general terms wiki, or both.
  • GSWG will have the opportunity to create a term like Wikipedia that create terms links and popups.
  • A terms wiki is part of a GitHub repository - available for external communities to contribute to.
  • Design makes it easy to construct a Glossary.
  • The Concepts and Terminology WG is working on tools to help address conflicts in term definitions across multiple terms wikis.
  • Drummond Reedwalked through the existing CTWG  terms wiki to describe its features and functions.
  • He then posed the question: "Does the GSWG need a separate terms wiki or would we rather contribute to a general one for ToIP terms?"
  • DECISION: The GSWG does not need its own dedicated terms wiki at this time, but will contribute to a "ToIP Core" terms wiki whose scope is terms intended to be used throughout ToIP architecture and governance. A dedicated GSWG terms wiki can always be initiated in the future if needed.
  • ACTION: Drummond Reed to communicate that decision to the Concepts and Terminology WG and propose a specific plan of action for beginning work on the "ToIP Core" terms wiki.
5 minsCalls for review
  • ACTION: All WG members are strongly urged to review the Introduction to ToIP V2 white paper—please submit any comments directly to the Google doc.
    • Judith Fleenor also asked for other WG chairs to put review of the paper on the agenda for their meetings over the next 10 days.
  • GSWG members are also encouraged to review or contribute to the Design Principles for the ToIP Stack, which should have a first draft completed by the end of the month
