Re: sac-class: LCC task force minutes and revised outline

[Steven Arakawa <steven.arakawa@yale.edu>]

I think the outline will work, but I would like some clarification/detail 
on what will be covered under the module Basic notation and basic 
cuttering. This would include the class number, decimal expansion,  LC 
cutter table, book numbers, dates, work letters? Do we introduce 
collocation here? Or is this just a formal analysis,  something like 
"deconstructing the LC call number," with the function of some of the 
elements (collocation/differentiation) postponed until shelflisting toward 
the end?  But the special types of material module may not make sense 
unless collocation has been introduced earlier. Would collocation be 
introduced in the Purpose of Classification module instead?

Also,  is double cuttering covered in Principles?

Minutes looked OK to me.
