Chairs/Editors/Secretaries/Members

OASIS Staff has been alerted to a new anomaly in
processing of TC/SC/MemberSection Ballots using the
Kavi system: email notifications typically sent by the
system to Group members (eligible voters in a poll
or ballot) are not being distributed as expected
to the voters. The problem is being investigated,
and we will let you know when it's fixed.

Meantime, the workaround is relatively simple, but
it depends upon your participation.  Whoever creates
a ballot should send an appropriate notice to the
Group (TC, Subcommittee, Member Section) mailing
list to notify Group participants of the ballot
details, and especially, the ballot URIs. The email
notice should include the public-access URI reference
as well as the password-protected URI, as required
by OASIS rules for visibility [1].

Example URIs:

public:   http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/ballot.php?id=2053
password: http://www.oasis-open.org/apps/org/workgroup/kmip/ballot.php?id=2053

Please feel free to contact me and/or the TC Admin
team with any questions.
