Agenda:
               Decide processes for IBIS 7.1 specification development
               - decide on an issue tracking list format and numbering
                   - Currently known issues are in a Word document.
                   - Consider previously used spreadsheet to track editing tasks of the specification.
                             
                   [AR] Michael Mirmak to start tracking spreadsheet derived from that used in version 7.0 editing with status of known issues.
 
                   - We need an official list of BIRDs approved for version 7.1.
                   - We need to know the status or probability of approval of BIRDs 202.3 and 209 and maybe 210 for inclusion in version 7.1.
                   - We should have a vote to finish technical changes to 7.1 within a few weeks.
 
        [AR] [Done 26 FEB 2021] Bob Ross to create a list of BIRDs approved that should be included in version 7.1. He will start with the list from IBIS Quality task force in preparation for contracting updated committee parser.
                             
               - Decide on draft version numbering and change tracking
                  - The method used for version 7.0 editing was basically, accept revision, save the document with date and integer number.
                  - We will save each accepted revision with the file name suffix, "draft"#_year_mo_da
                  - add draft# on title page

               [AR] [Done 1 MAR 2021] Randy Wolff to send the document of known issues to the team. Randy has reviewed the current list of issues and created the first revision draft of 7.1. He fixed simple, obvious errors such as typos.
