[ciq] Fw: [chairs] reminder: quarterly submission schedule

[Ram Kumar <rkumar@msi.com.au>]

Hi CIQ TC members

Can we submit xNAL (xNL and xAL) for consideration as an OASIS Standard?
We need three OASIS member organisations that can certify that
they have implemented xNAL. MSI and XML Global have implementations
of xNAL. What about your company Marcus? Do you have an implementation
of xNAL? If not xNAL, do you have an implementation of xCRL that uses
xNL and xAL? A haldful of non OASIS member organisations are using xNAL.
But that does not count to the voting.

Please advise.

Moreover, xCIL has to be moved as a committee spec. Last time we did not vote
on it because we were thinking of adding permissioning and security to xCIL.
The feedback I have received from many is that they do not want this
feature as they do not want another implementation of a security mechanism 
in xCIL as many groups are already working on security standards. If we
want to implement a security standard, the strong suggestion we get is to use
an already existing standard than inventing one. We have to therefore, as
as a committee have to make a decision on whether we want to implement
permissioning and security in xCIL. Please let me know your thoughts.

Regarding xCRL, we need to add a feature that can support GROUP relationships.
Currently, xCRL supports Person relationships (household, etc), organisation 
relationships and Joint person relationships. 

Regards

Ram

Chairs:

This is to remind you of the schedule for submitting Committee
Specifications for consideration by the OASIS membership for approval as
OASIS Standards.

As stated in the OASIS TC Process, Committee Specifications should be
submitted to me 30 days before the start of a calender quarter. So, if
you've got a specification that you want to submit to OASIS members for
the spring calender quarter review and voting cycle then you need to get
it to me by the first of March, along with all the accompanying
materials specified by the TC Process (i.e. documentation,
certifications of implementation, etc.) and the IPR policy.

Note that the TC's decision to submit a Committee Specification to OASIS
is separate from the TC's approval of a spec as a Committee
Specification; submission to OASIS is not automatic for Committee
Specifications. So, it goes like this:

1. The TC votes to approve the spec as a Committee Specification. This
requires a 2/3 vote.

2. The TC votes to submit the Committee Specification to OASIS members
for consideration as an OASIS Standard.

3. The TC submits to me by 30 days before the start of the calender
quarter the complete package of information required by the TC Process
(first paragraph of Section 2) and the IPR.

You've got about a month to get this finished up. The deadline for the
following quarterly cycle is the first of March.
