This is what I actually meant.

When working on one of my action items I have noticed that proposals are 
not the only source of changes for ODF 1.2. Another source are 
resolutions of public comments. For this reason I agree that a new page 
is best. This page may or should actually include resolutions of 
comments that result in a change of the ODF 1.2 text, too.

So, to summarize, the current suggestion is:

- All open proposals are tracked on the new wiki page
- The use of the new forms becomes mandatory for all new proposals.
- We (either the TC chairs or the proposal owners) create "dummy" wiki 
pages for the existing open proposals to simplify tracking them.
- The list of approved proposals is moved to a new Wiki page. Proposals 
that get approved for ODF 1.2 will be listed there, too, as well as 
public comment resolutions that result in changes of ODF 1.2.

    OASIS does not provide Bugzilla access.  So yes,
we are re-inventing the wheel, at least a small one.
