Subject: [xacml] Re: Question about mechanics of announcing a public review
Hal: You're right; we haven't done this before. So we'll have to make it up as we go this first time. The Process says that the public review "should be publicized on applicable OASIS lists and other public mail lists." So the announcement should at a minimum go to the OASIS members list, which will get to all participants of all TCs. announce would probably be redundant, plus it's used mostly for press releases. xml-dev would be good for getting a broader audience of XML developers. If there are other lists that we can get a message on then we should do that too. The idea is to get as many (good) comments as possible. > I envision the announcement would be quite simple: what, when, where, > how to comment. Yeah, something like that. If you'd like to take a stab at drafting something I could polish it before sedning it out. Or if you'd prefer to just send me the bare facts I can draft the announcement. > The timeframe for this may be quite short.

Don't try to rush this; we cut the approval schedule specifically so you wouldn't need to feel rushed. Remember that you've got to include an account of the disposition of the comments when you submit to OASIS, and you can't do this until you have actually addressed the comments. If you don't get any comments back then you can submit right away, but you may get some comments that will need to be addressed, after which you need to re-approve the Committee Specification before you submit to OASIS. -Karl Hal Lockhart wrote: > Since the public review process is new, there are few precidents to > guide us.
