The minutes of the meeting are at http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/office/200801/msg00025.html Can you please create a ballot for this. Thank you and best regards Michael Mary McRae wrote: > If the TC wishes to hold a vote to approve as a Committee Specification, then > that motion must be made and minuted.
