    • RESOLVED: Replace in UCR the requirement on Rule language coverage by the following statement: Because of the great diversity of rule languages, no one interchange language is likely to be able to bridge between all. Instead, RIF provides dialects which are each targeted at a cluster of similar rule languages. RIF must allow intra-dialect interoperation, i.e. interoperability between semantically similar rule languages (via interchange of RIF rules) within one dialect, and it should support inter-dialect interoperation, i.e. interoperation between dialects with maximum overlap.
    • RESOLVED: Publish UCR as WD4
    • RESOLVED: Publish Core as WD2
    • RESOLVED: Publish PRD as WD2
    • RESOLVED: Publish DTB as WD2
