  • 1.  Standing Rules of the OpenC2 Technical Committee

    Posted 06-14-2017 17:42
    All, Recall that we had our kickoff on June 7, 2017 and at that time we adopted a standing rule (rule 2) with unanimous consent. It is logical to have a rule (rule 1) regarding the standing rules. I also included a standing rule regarding agenda items (rule 3) Please consider this wording. If there are no objections to the wording, I will ask the Executive Secretary to post rule 2 on the OpenC2 TC homepage. If there are no objections to the wording of rule 1 or rule 3 I will set up a ballot. Thank you and please advise, Very Respectfully Joe Brule ==== Tear line ==== In addition to the rules defined by the OASIS TC Process and Roberts Rule of Order, the OASIS OpenC2 Technical Committee has adopted a set of standing rules to facilitate the execution of the day-to-day business of the Technical committee. Rule One; SUSPENSION OF STANDING RULES FOR THE DURATION OF THE MEETING 1. The rules of OASIS or Roberts Rule of Order cannot be suspended as they are not standing rules and always apply. 2. During the course of a meeting, a standing rule may be suspended for the duration of a meeting. A motion to suspend a standing rule is not debatable and must be called to question immediately. The rule will be suspended if any of the following criteria are met; 3. By a vote of 2/3 majority of the voting members present without prior notice 4. By a simple majority vote of the voting members present with prior notice 5. By a ruling of both co-chairs Rule Two; CONSIDERATION OF ARTIFACTS PRESENTED BY A SUBCOMMITTEE TO THE COMMITTEE AS A WHOLE 1. All artifacts must be provided to the Executive Secretary no later than seven days prior to the meeting of the technical committee. The topic may be added to the agenda upon approval of the co-chairs or by proposal by members of the TC as described in Rule Three of these standing rules. 2. Prior to consideration, the chair will call for objections. 3. Any member present may object. An objection must include a brief reason for the objection. 4. Any other member present may support one or more objections 5. If a threshold of 25% or more of the members present object, then the committee will take it as sufficient cause to send the artifact back to the subcommittee for further deliberation. 6. If the threshold is not met then a motion to consider the artifact may proceed 7. If the artifact is called to question, the voting members present may accept, reject or send the artifact back to the subcommittee for further deliberation. Rule Three; CONSIDERATION OF AGENDA ITEMS FOR COMMITTEE MEETINGS 1. All members may propose agenda items to the technical committee by providing a summary of the item to the executive secretary no later than seven days prior to the meeting. 2. All agenda items are subject to the approval of the co-chairs. Joe Brule Engineering (Y2D122) FNX-3, B4A335 410.854.4045 'Numquid et vos vultis formicae! Quid illuc est quia formicae!'
