Reminder: Ballot to Approve ODF v1.1 Accessibility Guidelines as aCommittee Specification

[robert_weir@us.ibm.com]

I'd like to remember all voting members
of the ODF TC that we have a ballot currently open to approve the ODF 1.1
Accessibility Guidelines as a Committee Specification.  You should
have received a note from OASIS early this week notifying you of this ballot.

Approval as a Committee Specification
requires a "Special Majority Vote", meaning that 2/3 of TC members
with voting rights must approve, and no more than 1/4 of TC members with
voting rights disapprove.  So participation in the ballot is critical.
 If an insufficient number of voting members register their vote,
then the ballot fails.

As of this afternoon, only 3 of 12 voting
members have registered their votes.  The ballot closes at 23:45 New
York time on Wednesday April 30th.

So I urge the 9 voting members who have
noted voted to give this ballot their attention over the next few days.

If you've misplaced the original notification,
the ballot can be found here:   http://www.oasis-open.org/apps/org/workgroup/office/ballot.php?id=1459

Thanks!

-Rob
