Missing interface definitions (bug 3754) was a big topic of 
discussion.

Missing interface definitions: some generated from 
specdb-aux-scripts/check_consistency.sh LSB Navigator can also 
generate some of this data, selecting admin mode and going to 
Workgroup Services ("Included interfaces without 
documentation") Another source is in lsbspec itself: as spec 
pieces are built, interface references are added. If not 
found, an sgml comment is emitted, so searching for these is 
helpful - they will look like: 
Base/generic/utillib/libz.sgml: Note these will all be duplicated, as each 
library-related fragment is then ' built into a larger chunk, 
so the example missing inflateCopy will also appear in 
Base/generic/utillib/utillib.sgml

lsbspec: are png15 interfaces documented?  png15 ones matching 
png12 were duplicated into own directory. References: 
lsbspec/Graphics/generic/libpng and 
lsbspec/Graphics/generic/libpng15. mats notes it will be 
intesting to check whether the libpng15 interfaces have 
Interface.Idocumented set to true, if not that could be 
inflating the count. Update: they're not marked documented.

=== (topic proposed at beginning, but we didn't really get to 
it) A note from mats on building the packaging spec: source is 
separated into a submodule directory Packaging in the lsbspec 
branch, and buildable in the books branch in the Packaging* 
subdirectories.  The design in general is submodules are 
buildable standalone in books, these are not expected to be 
released as such as LSB branded specifications, so this is a 
good model for building "Linux Package Specification" without 
involving the rest of the LSB stuff.  Materials in 
lsbspec/generic/intro are used only for the 0submodule) book.  
intro.m4 is thus the place that contains the verbiage "Linux 
Package Specification" as opposed to implying it's LSB 
packaging.

Call ends at local Noon
