Subject: [wsia] [wsrp-wsia] Voting on TC Specification
Folks -- any of you who would like to participate in the day-to-day work on
closing up the Joint Spec, and who are not already members of WSRP as well
as WSIA, should send a note to Thomas Schaeck indicating your interest in
joining WSRP. The joint meeting schedule for Thursdays 11-1 Eastern has
already been circulated on the wsrp-wsia mailing list.
Once there is a draft for approval as a Committee Spec each TC will then
vote on whether to accept it separately. This will take place early next
year.

Subject: [wsrp-wsia] Voting on TC Specification
Dear WSRP / WSIA TC members,
this is the guidance from Karl Best on how to handle the voting on the WSRP
specification:
"There is no Process for joint TC decisions. Under the OASIS TC
Process, TCs can coordinate their work, either informally through
liaisons or formally through a JC, but neither is enforceable upon the
other TC.
I'm a bit wary about how this is proceeding. It appears that the TCs
are starting to merge. A merger doesn't bother me but it should be
formalized (which I think would require either starting a new TC and
shutting down the two originals, or shutting down one and changing the
charter of the other; but note that charters can only be "clarified"
and such a change may be bigger than that. Let's discuss this
separately).
So to your question of how to handle this joint vote: My opinion is
that each TC must make its own decision/vote. If the two coincide then
great. If they don't then you'll have to figure out some other way to
go forward -- probably modifying the item being voted upon then taking
another vote on both sides."
So the best option seems to be what we had discussed in a call a while ago
- that the few remaining WSIA members who participate in the joint
discussions and are not already WSRP TC members should join the WSRP TC to
participate in votes on day-to-day issues.
The WSRP TC then has to vote on the WSRP 1.0 specification to accept it as
a WSRP TC spec and the WSIA TC can vote separately to make it into a common
WSRP/IA TC spec.
After the 1.0 spec, we then need to decide how to best go forward and
whether we ultimately want to merge the TCs.
Best regards,
Thomas

Chairman OASIS WSRP TC
