question about process for v6

["Joseph Lorenzo Hall" <joehall@berkeley.edu>]

I was excited to see that v6 is in the infancy of thought here... and
that one goal is to facilitate used of EML in things like the VIP.

However, I have a very newbie-like question, considering I joined this
TC after v5 was developed but before it was balloted:  How does an
incremental change to something like EML happen?

Does it go something like this?

1. TC decides goals for support in v6.
2. TC decides what technically it would take to make that happen.
3. TC revises goals based on difficulties anticipated from previous step.
4. TC divvies up and begins to implement changes.
5. TC converges and tests, documents, etc. the new version.
6. TC submits an initial standard for public review.
7. (Other OASIS procedures that I'm familiar with from the v5 process)

Apologies if this is documented somewhere. best, Joe
