[Esip-documentation] ACDD status

hi everyone,

With the latest ESIP Documentation meeting, I've updated the specification per the two changes we agreed upon, and I think the ACDD 1.3 document is again down to at most 2 'minor' open issues. 

We have scheduled an ACDD meeting for 2 weeks from today, Dec 4, to discuss these topics as needed; my hope is that they are resolved via this list before then.

(1) Is the existing text describing the publisher (person or other entity "responsible for publishing the data file or product to users, with its current metadata and format") appropriate?

(2) Is the standard_name_vocabulary attribute necessary and appropriate, given CF specifies the purpose of the standard_name attribute.

I will follow up on each of these separately via email.

By the way, if you are looking for all the historical Wiki Discussion page notes, they are at the 'Working' document's Talk page:   
   http://wiki.esipfed.org/index.php/Talk:Attribute_Convention_for_Data_Discovery_1-2_Working 

I'm sorry that we missed talking through today's issues last week, as originally planned; but today's CF standard_name discussion was important and otherwise might not have happened. So it's all good.

John
