Subject: Comments and feature requests
Dear TC members, below Rob and Patrick have made some suggestions how we could create a process for the comment handling. I personally like these ideas, and I think we should establish such a process. However, if we establish this process, we need someone who keeps track of comments, and the comment registry. Is someone of you interested in taking over this task, or volunteers to do so? We further may require some lightweight process for feature requests that we get as comments. I could imagine that the one who keeps track of the comments alerts the TC of new requests, and asks for a volunteer who may process the request within the TC. The task of this person would be to introduce the request to the TC so that the TC can accept or decline it, and, in case the request gets accepted, to advance the proposal to a state where the TC can vote on it. Obviously, there could be different volunteers for different proposals.

As ODF matures we are going to be getting comments and having a process in place will make it easier to track comments, etc. as well as for people who have made comments to follow the resolution of their comments.
