Charter Overview
---------------------
Ashok proposed to do charter review during F2F meeting.
Charter link - http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/sca-policy/charter.php
Ashok walks through the charter
Discussion on items 7 and 8 of scope sections
Martin: It is now a requirement under OASIS for every specification to address conformance requirements
Ashok: Is test suite development a requirement?
Martin: Not yet under OASIS process
JeffM: Open CSA MS policy spells out minimum requirement regarding test suite. Each TC to define their own exit criteria
Anish: Charter says - at least two independent offerings
JeffM: All Technical Committees affiliated with this Member Section that have normative specifications as their deliverables shall have Charters that require them to:
* Develop a Test Plan, Test Cases and Scenarios, for each such normative specification before finalizing those specifications;
* Closely coordinate with other TCs in the Member Section to ensure that related specifications are consistent and can be used with each other;
* Define concrete exit criteria that shall include at least two independent offerings that implement and are compliant with the all normative portions of specifications and demonstrate interoperability and portability as appropriate. Note that these are minimums and that TCs are free to set more stringent criteria.
Bill: Point for future information regarding testing. We should contact Jacques Durand regarding the TC for test guidelines.
Ashok suggests Bill to send an email to the list regarding his suggestion
Jacques: Thanks for the mention of the TAG TC - we'd be definitely interested in cooperating.
TC Roles
-----------
Ashok: We need - editors, note takers, issues list manager, implementation, testing group members, liaisons to other TCs.
Note taker takes minutes. Some TCs have permanent minute taker, and other TCs have per meeting note taker.
Liaison subgroup is to resolve common questions/issues across more than one Open CSA TCs
Anish: Some OASIS TCs have secretary position who helps in maintaining the web site, note taking, etc
Mary: The secretary role as defined in our groupware system is the role with write-permissions equivalent to the chair. A webmaster would need to be assigned with Secretary role
You may find multiple people with secretary role in some TCs depending upon their access requirements
TomRutt: Issues editor should be separate from Secretary
Secretary can reorganize the files/folders which a regular member can not.
