I
haven't received anything from the chair - I guess maybe we're a little old for
warnings from the headteacher! From my point if view, it was my responsibility
to make the F2F meetings and the calls, and I didn't make as many of them as I
should have.
However, it might be a good idea to get clarification
of these rules just in case the "blacklisted four" might be able to voice an
opinion.

I
believe the oasis rules say that people don't get dropped unless they have
received a warning from the chair. Has anyone been warned recently
?

OK, we should vote on this tomorrow. One procedural
point. According to my records the following people are not currently voting
members of the committee (even by the most lose interpretation of the OASIS
rules, i.e. we count only face-to-face meetings):
Jim Webber (HP) - did not attend the last f2f
meetings, did not dial in on subsequent teleconferences and as of yesterday
unsubsribed from the mailing list
Eric Newcomer (IONA) - never attended a f2f neither
called in for a teleconference
Alex Ceponkus - not an OASIS
member
Bill Pope - not an OASIS member

Given the discussions generated over the last few weeks about the
shape/content and future of any BTP specification, and the delays to any
attempts to adopt, we the undersigned wish to call a formal vote on the
following issue, to be resolved at the next teleconference on 11th of
October 2001:
The Technical Committee confirms the scope as determined by
the last San Jose face-to-face in late July and the subsequent quorate and
minuted teleconference of 16 August, namely:
To define the interoperable messages to be sent between
initiators and the factory, terminators and coordinators/composers,
enrollers and superiors, superiors and inferiors (including the roles and
responsibilities of sub-coordinators and sub-composers in a transaction
tree), and the relationship of contexts and replies to application
messages, plus facilities for recovery including message redirection, and
compounding capability to allow one-shot optimization and one-wire
topology. A concrete binding to SOAP and SOAP-with-attachments is
included. Partial role-based conformance is defined.
and further resolves to close discussion on issues of scope in
the interests of rapid adoption of the Committee
Specification.
