OASIS Open Document Format for Office Applications (OpenDocument) TC

  • 1.  Issues Tracking System now Live

    Posted 04-17-2009 01:47
    The ODF Issue Tracking Project has been created and can be accessed at:
    http://tools.oasis-open.org/issues/browse/office
    
    Each Member of the TC should have received an email with their login  
    information. I have created accounts corresponding to your OASIS login  
    name. Once you log in, please change your password to correspond to  
    your OASIS password.
    
    Below is an overview from the TC Handbook. For more information, the  
    JIRA User’s Guide is online here:http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira/docs/v3.13.1/introduction.html
    
    Please let me know if you encounter any problems or if something isn’t  
    clear. And of course I’d love to hear any suggestions you might have!
    
    Regards,

    OASIS-hosted Issues Tracking System
    OASIS has now installed a JIRA issues tracking system that will be  
    made available to Technical Committees upon request. While any of the  
    existing methods are still viable, Technical Committees may want to  
    consider migrating their existing method to a new JIRA Project.
    
    Access
    In accordance with the OASIS Technical Committee Process Policy,  
    Technical Committee Members have read/write access.  Access control is  
    at the Project level. All Projects are publicly-viewable.
    
    Projects
    Each Technical Committee will be a unique Project and identified by  
    Technical Committee name.
    
    Components
    Components are used to group a set of related issues. Components may  
    identify Subcommittees or unique work products (that is,  
    specifications or other document types) within a Technical Committee.
    
    Roles
    There are four (4) roles defined:
    TC Chair
    TC Editor
    TC Member
    Anyone
    
    Workflows
    There is currently only one workflow available: Technical Committee  
    Issues. Additional workflows can be created based on Technical  
    Committee requirements.
    New - When an issue is created it is automatically assigned a status  
    of New. A New issue has not yet been accepted by the Technical  
    Committee. A new issue may either be accepted (Open Issue) or rejected  
    (Close Issue) by the TC. Once an issue has been entered, the user  
    should send an e-mail to the TC list with the URI.
    Open - An issue accepted by the Technical Committee. Actual discussion  
    of the issue takes place on the TC e-mail list and should include the  
    URI to the actual issue.
    Deferred - An issue accepted by the Technical Committee, but agreed   
    that its resolution will be not be included in the current version.
    Resolved - An issue with an agreed-upon resolution that requires a  
    change to the work product.
    Applied - An issue to which the agreed-upon resolution has been  
    incorporated into a draft work product.
    Closed - An issue that has either been rejected or resolved and  
    incorporated into a Committee-approved work product.
    
    All discussion on issues should happen on the Technical Committee's e- 
    mail list and in TC meetings. As much detail as possible should be  
    included when a new issue is opened. Additionally, the issue should  
    note:
    -          resolution, if accepted
    -          reason for closing (completed, duplicate, rejected, etc.)
    
    
    NOTE: The issues tracking system is not tied into the OASIS groupware  
    (KAVI) authentication. Permissions must be managed manually.

    Thanks, Mary.  This should be a great help.
    
    However, I'd ask TC members to refrain from entering items until I've had 
    the opportunity to work with Michael and Patrick to define some further 
    usage guidelines.   This shouldn't take long.
    
    Now we're cooking!
