Fw: [chairs] New rules regarding public reviews

[Simon Holdsworth <simon_holdsworth@uk.ibm.com>]

Folks,

My reading of this is that although
the revised JMS spec was uploaded prior to 14th October, this is not a
CD and therefore it will be necessary to have another 15-day public review
of the JMS binding spec.  I expect that once we have the JMS binding
testcases finalised and CD ready that we would either submit both the spec
and test cases for public review at the same time, or wait to submit the
spec until after the testcases PR completes in case of any additional changes.

Please let me know if you read this
differently.

Regards, Simon

   [chairs] New
rules regarding public reviews

---

A question has been raised regarding CDs approved
post-public review that had no substantive changes but have not yet been
submitted for CS ballot and whether they would need to go for an additional
15-day review due to the TC Process changes effective 15 October.

If the post-public review CD has been uploaded to docs.oasis-open.org,
or if a request to upload the post-public review CD to docs.oasis-open.org
is received by TC Administration on or before 14 October, no further review
will be required. This will ensure that no further changes are made on
or after 15 October without a public review. We will not, in all likelihood,
get all of them QC'd and uploaded before Friday, but as long as a valid
request is submitted you will not need to submit for another public review
unless further changes are made.

If you would like to submit a request, please send the following in an
email message to tc-admin@oasis-open.org:
link to the CD as approved in Kavi
link to the meeting minutes or ballot showing TC agreed that there were
no substantive changes and approved the CD
link to the most recent public review announcement in http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/tc-announce/
link to the comment resolution log

Requests that do not contain the information listed above, or where the
meeting minutes do not clearly state that the TC agreed that there were
no substantive changes, will be rejected and an additional 15-day review
will be required before proceeding with a Committee Specification ballot.

You will see that the submission forms for Committee Specification ballot
that will go into effect on 15 October require a link to a CSPRD or CD-PRD.
A post-public review CD that was uploaded/requested to be uploaded to docs
prior to 15 October will also be acceptable.

I will add this to the FAQ as well.

The FAQ is available online here: http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/process-faq.php
