Minutes of the 12th June 2014 Teleconference Austin-658 Page 1 of 1 Submitted by Andrew Josey, The Open Group. 13th June 2014 Attendees: Don Cragun, IEEE PASC OR Richard Hansen, BBN Nick Stoughton, USENIX, ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC 22 OR Joerg Schilling, FOKUS Faunhofer Geoff Clare, The Open Group Andrew Josey, The Open Group David Clissold, IBM Eric Blake, Red Hat Martin Rehak, Oracle * General news Geoff has write access to the SVN repository and is continuing the edits to the current TC2 defects. A new work in progress draft has been checked into the repository. This now also includes auto generated rationale sections with links to the applicable defect reports (these are added automatically when building the document and so are not included with the bug reports in the SVN repository). Andrew has circulated a marked up TC2 PAR (project authorization request). This was discussed, it was noted that the PMC evaluation criteria form also has to be produced, and then both sent to the IEEE PASC SEC committee for their approval. Andrew circulated the draft PMC criteria to the core team after the meeting. It was also noted that in the annual ISO editors report we should include notification of the upcoming TC2 development. * Outstanding actions +Bug 0000251: Forbid newline, or even bytes 1 through 31 (inclusive), in filenames OPEN http://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=251 Don has an action to produce a proposal. +Bug 0000561: NUL-termination of sun_path in Unix sockets OPEN http://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=561 Eric has an action to update the proposal. +Bug 0000573: Please add '+' to the portable filename character set OPEN http://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=573 Joerg has an action to prepare a proposed change. +Bug 0000592: consistent use of struct timespec OPEN http://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=592 Jim had provided additional information in bugnote 1627.
