RE: [regrep] Result of Query Ballot

["Karl F. Best" <karl.best@oasis-open.org>]

Dan:

Under OASIS rules the voting membership of a TC are those people who are
consistently attending meetings and participating in votes. Half of
those people must vote in order for an election to be valid. So there's
really no difference between how we do it and OMG.
