[Hal wrote] > I am not sure if we can legally approve the doc without actually making the changes before the vote Hal, your memory is accurate: ballot approval motions are supposed to be made with reference to specifications that actually/tangibly exist, and which are available for review before the motion to approve is made. Here's one text explaining the rule, from the TC Handbook
http://docs.oasis-open.org/TChandbook/Reference/CommitteeSpecDrafts.html#wd "The motion to approve a WD at CSD level must include the Working Draft identifier for a resource which has been published at the time of the motion, including: title, publication date, and URI. For the Working Draft URI, please provide a link to a ZIP file containing all of the necessary resources, including the editable source of the Working Draft and any related resources such as namespace document drafts, XML schema files, XML instances, and all files that are part of the Work Product." And more prosaic: "May a TC approve an imaginary/nonexistent WD as CSD/CND?" (no....)

http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/chairs/201103/msg00002.html http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/tcmembers/201103/msg00000.html #2 May a TC approve an imaginary/nonexistent WD as CSD/CND? ============================================================== The occasional allowance made by TC Admin in the past for approval of a Working Draft "subject to certain changes..." is being discontinued, primarily for resourcing reasons. TC Admin does not have time to verify that ONLY certain kinds/classes of changes, or changes consistent with a certain stated goal, or ONLY certain enumerated changes, have actually been made in a Working Draft that's approved for CD. This practice is judged procedurally suspect, and has created numerous problems due to ambiguity, demonstrable lack of adherence to limited specified changes, and other consequences. Until further notice, motions to approve a WD as CSD/CND must be made with reference to an existing, published Working Draft release -- one that actually exists at the date/time of the motion, as clarified in the TC Handbook.

xacml@lists.oasis-open.org Subject: Re: [xacml] Groups - xacml-3.0-core-spec-wd-23-en.zip uploaded Hi Rich, Ok, I think I know what the confusion is about. That is the public review draft.
http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/xacml/201110/msg00004.html I published wd 22 and I think Bill also did some typo fixing on it before TC admin updated all the front matter and published it for the public review. I took the public review draft as the starting point for wd-23 so the corrections made by TC admin would not be lost. This was just so long time ago, I forgot about it. I have been making small changes to wd-23 over a long time as we have agreed on specific issues. But we did not reach agreement on all issues until recently, so that's why it took so long. The technical content of the public review draft should be the same as wd-22 since TC admin only updates front matter, but I do not have a redlined diff between wd-22 and the public review draft available. You would have to ask TC admin whether they saved one if you want to see every change since wd-22.

Specifically: changebars in footer refer to "...csprd03...", dated "08 August 2011", as opposed to wd22, which had footer "wd-22" and dated "28 June 2011" I will refer to this email in agenda.
