Subject: Re: [dita-busdocs] March 1 2010 Regular Meeting Minutes
Hi Bruce, You should not use the word 'charter'; you might also want to make it clear that your deliverables are to the TC only - that is, a subcommittee cannot make any binding decisions on behalf of the main TC and all work needs to be approved. Hope that helps!
