Subject: RE: [ebxml-msg] Important Volunteers required !!
300 changes? Ian, Unless it is an actual error in the spec, like NonNegativeInteger in place of PositiveInteger, then we should not consider the change unless it was submitted BEFORE the vote.

Ian, I think this is more difficult than it needs to be. Many of the roles, such as "Secretary" could revolve as Colleen suggested. The OASIS organisation recognises no roles except "Chair", much less requiring the many listed below. Stopping work because these roles haven't been filled rather than continuing with the rather broken structure we have (or a slightly improved structure if only a subset of the roles are filled) isn't going to get us any closer to completing work. As Chris and I have said to you privately, we are willing to assist in converting our issues lists into whatever source format required by the change / issue tracking process put in place. That's a major hole in our current process and our ~300 issues in the new format would be a great start (and a major undertaking). Even if we are only able to get through the editorial issues (the bulk of our comments) or the 165 issues outstanding since 1.09, we'll have significantly improved the specification. While we all much appreciate the time and effort you, David and Arvola have put into this, much great technical input has come from everyone in the group. I'd hate to see that input lost through a lack of administrative volunteers. Let's choose an issues tracking format, look for volunteers with whatever commitment they can make and continue improving a great document. thanx, doug ----- Original Message ----- From: <ian.c.jones@bt.com> To: <ebxml-msg@lists.oasis-open.org> Sent: Wednesday, 23 January 2002 08:34 Subject: [ebxml-msg] Important Volunteers required !! Members, During yesterdays conference call I stated that David F and I could not do anymore than we already were and we require people to help to run the process. We must have someone to manage the issues and errors list if we are going to produce a usable and quality specification for submission to the OASIS membership. In detail the roles that someone needs to do are :- OASIS requires the following roles Chair Secretary Membership secretary Editor Web master Liaisons (Joint Committee Colleen and I), CPPA (mainly reverse by Dale and Arvola) We also need Change control Any others? David and I are covering most of the OASIS required roles with help from Arvola for the schema and some of the early change control. Volunteers to take on any role would be appreciated we need more than just the change control. If people do not volunteer the changes and amendments requested or found during implementation testing can not be fixed. Not resolving this will require us to stop work and close the TC as this is a voluntary process.
