* Minutes

We may have to wait for pressure from
the industry to reduce legal drafting complexity, and so the subsequent
complexity of resulting FpML models

FpML-4-4-LCWD-2 will be released in
the next two weeks. Swaps Wire may make a further proposal for inclusion
in the release

For business rules we do not have a
'last exercise' context, and so cannot have business rules which would
depend on this. This should be specified as part of the exercise process

FpML-4-3 is still being revised for
Loan WG work, Swaps Wire interest leg dates proposal will also be included

Many of our outstanding Validation Issues
relate not only to correct _expression_ of the business rule, but also ensuring
that the evaluation does always return a result. Validation WG should comment
on the revised implementations, and/or provide alternate implementations


MG recorded our decisions in the online
FpML issue tracking system during the course of our meeting, which are
summarised in the decision section below


* Decisions

1. Adopt Swaps Wire interest leg dates
proposal for inclusion in FpML-4-3 onwards
