Grist for Agenda

  • Crosswalker issues, and how they are needed by SoSoL (HC; RB/CC/JF; ?GB; ?TE)
    • this will make the XSLT modules necessary - once changes have been made to idp data, the XSLT will have to be run in order that the improved texts can be viewed with improvements (sorry if this is obvious to all JC, but I have to try to make sure that I am understanding the process properly)
  • HGV Glossary rearchitecture (JC, GB, HC, and maybe TE)
  • z
