OASIS Open Document Format for Office Applications (OpenDocument) TC

Members of the ODF TC, My apologies to all for not catching this sooner. The clarified charter approved on 05 May 2021 failed to include the IPR Mode as required by the OASIS IPR Policy. Because the IPR Mode determines the obligations of TC members, this section is required. The charter as approved was invalid. This Special Majority Vote asks you to consider the corrected charter. The corrected charter is, in every way, identical to the previous charter except that the RF on Limited Mode declaration has been added. The ballot is open now. It closes 25 May 2021 at 23:59 UTC. You can access the ballot at: Internal link: https://www.oasis-open.org/apps/org/workgroup/office/ballot.php?id=3622 Publicly accessible link: https://www.oasis-open.org/committees/ballot.php?id=3622 This ballot is only open to eligible voting members of the TC. I currently show the following members as eligible to vote: * Cave, Francis Individual * Durusau, Patrick Individual * Guelzow, Andreas Individual * Hellstern, Alfred Microsoft * Henschel, Regina The Document Foundation * McLain, Rich Microsoft * Schubert, Svante Individual * Stahl, Michael allotropia software GmbH If your name is not on the list and you believe this to be in error, please contact me and the TC Chair so that we can resolve the issue. Please send any questions to the list. /chet -- ChetÂEnsign Chief Technical Community Steward OASIS Open    +1 201-341-1393 chet.ensign@oasis-open.org www.oasis-open.org

Hi all, I'm confused. The ballot was opened and closed immediately. Are the previous votes moved to new ballot automatically? Besides that, the new text contains the line, "The charter for this TC was last modified on NN May 2021 as balloted at ballot-url." Will the placeholders be filled afterwards?

Hi Regina, Apologies for the confusion. I started the new ballot prematurely, so I closed it and replaced it with a new one. And yes, the NN May will be filled in when I send the text of the charter page to our IT support to load. /chet On Tue, May 18, 2021 at 11:39 AM Regina Henschel < regina.henschel@libreoffice.org > wrote: Hi all, I'm confused.
