The Committee Specification has had its required 60 day public review, and the
review materials were sent out to the membership of OASIS for the required
15-day familiarization period. (Those materials can be found at:
http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/tc-announce/200710/msg00002.html.) As the
required review and familiarization periods have now been completed it is time
to vote. The applicable section of the OASIS TC Process is at
http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/process.php#3.4.
Voting to approve the work product of our Technical Committees is a key step in
the OASIS process, to better assure our broader user community of the quality
and applicability of the methods or TCs create. I strongly encourage each
member organization to consider the works submitted for approval and participate
by casting a ballot.
As each OASIS member organization has only one vote, participating employees of
your organization should provide their input to you, their voting
representative, so that you can decide how to vote on behalf of your
organization. We point that out to them, on our general [members] list,
concurrently with this message.
The voting representative from each OASIS member organization should submit the
organization's vote by 11:45 p.m. Eastern Standard Time (US) 31 Oct 2007. Voting
will be conducted using the OASIS member database tools. To cast your ballots,
go to the Voting group ballot page at
http://www.oasis-open.org/apps/org/workgroup/voting/ballots.php. You will need
to log-in to the database tools in order to cast your ballots; if you have not
yet obtained your username and password please contact Scott McGrath
(scott.mcgrath@oasis-open.org) for help.
You may change your ballot until the time that balloting closes. Ballots will be
publicly archived. Comments may be made but are not solicited as the
specifications already have been subject to public review.
