Subject: new OASIS TC mail lists
OASIS TC members: The new OASIS technical committee process requires that each committee have both a discussion mail list, where TC members carry on their work discussions, as well as a comment list, where the public can make comments about the work going on in the committee. As such I have created a comment list for each committee which is configured so that anyone may send a message to the list. It would be convenient and simple to automatically subscribe all committee members to thir comment list so that you can see these public comments, but I am opposed to subscribing someone to a list without their knowledge or permission, so have not done so. I would, however, request that at least the committee chair subscribe to the list, as well as any members who may be interested in public comments on the work of the committee. I expect these comment lists to be very low volume, as this is a new concept and outside of the OASIS membership. It is important for the OASIS process, though, that the opportunity exist for non-members to comment on our work. The OASIS process does not require that the TC respond to comments, only that they be allowed and archived. Both discussion and comment lists are publicly archived, in keeping with OASIS' policy of open discussion. The name of the comment list is the committee name followed by "-comment"; for example, the comment list for dsml is dsml-comment. To subscribe to a new comment list, send a message to <listname>-comment-request@lists.oasis-open.org, with the word "subscribe" as the body of the message (e.g. dsml-comment-request@lists.oasis-open.org). Another list that you should be interested in is tc-announce. This list will be used for all announcements related to OASIS technical committees. By subscribing to this list you will be included in calls for participation in new TCs, notified when TCs have committee specifications out for review and voting, and other related news. To subscribe to this new list please send an email message to tc-announce-request@lists.oasis-open.org with the word "subscribe" as the body of the message. </karl> ============================================================ Karl F.
