The main objection to the use of Word is the long term retention of the data. If the standard is to be used over the long term, and the document forms part of the standard or supporting information, it should probably be stores as PDF, as there is significant effort being made in the archiving community to ensure that pdf files will be readable long term.

DEXlib-ers,

I know that some people love XML and data "hidden" in databases, but there is nothing like a Word document!
Every one can read and print it. You can file it on your system the way you want. You can comment on it and even comment on comments and the author can easily summarize the comments and create the final document for approval.

Well, let\s go for Mats' proposal. And define a simple registration number series for PLCS TC document.

(Eg PLCS-2005-0001-001:00 = doc 0001 for Year 2005, Version 001, 00 = approved and released)

Regards

Carl

 Hi all,

This is a comment on the procedure used by Rob to prepare the ballot document.

I firmly believe that,
   1- Creating the information which should be balloted in DEXlib.
   2- Copying it from DEXlib and pasting it into a Word-document.
   3- Presenting the document for ballot.
should be stated as a standard ballot procedure within the OASIS PLCS TC, because it makes sure that the information exists within DEXlib and isn't lost in a document in the OASIS archive.

The author/"ballot-manager" is of course responsable to correct DEXlib later according to the ballot descision.

This procedure should only be used for ballots regarding information which should be inside DEXlib (e.g. not for OASIS PLCS TC organisation issues).

Regards,
  Mats
