Subject: RE: [xri] IMPORTANT: New Ballot
Just to further clarify Gabe's note about ballots and TC membership: by OASIS's recent TC process revisions, it is now required that all voting members of a TC return 2 out of any 3 consecutive ballots for any official online TC vote. Failure by a voting member to return any 2 out of 3 consecutive ballots (absent special extenuating circumstances) will result in the voting member reverting to Observer "non-voting" status. Since the XRI TC has elected to conduct our official business online (vs. telecons or in-person meetings), this is the primary mechanism by which voting membership in the XRI TC is maintained. Because we are coming up on a particular important vote - the XRI 1.0 Committee Draft Specification - we will be conducting at least three votes over the next three weeks both to decide the remaining key issues and to confirm the active voting members of the TC prior to the Committee Draft Spec vote. The ballot on the resolution simplification proposal is the first of those votes. So, all current voting members who wish to remain active, please take the 60 seconds it requires to submit your vote (yes, no, or other) on each of these ballots. Thanks, =Drummond -----Original Message----- From: Wachob, Gabe [mailto:gwachob@visa.com] Sent: Friday, September 12, 2003 11:44 AM To: 'xri@lists.oasis-open.org' Subject: [xri] IMPORTANT: New Ballot Those of you who are official XRI TC voting members should be getting a notice about a new Ballot that I've created on the TC. This ballot is on the question of whether or not to adopt the simplified resolution proposal. Voting on this ballot is important for 2 reasons: 1) The proposal I made was relatively large, and I'm hoping to call attention to the fact that its something that may affect your attitude towards XRI on a macro level and 2) we need to start using ballots to ensure membership in the TC is well-defined (according to new Oasis membership rules). So, everyone who wishes to continue being a member of the TC MUST vote on this ballot in the next 7 days. There is an option to abstain and an "other" option. You have no excuse!!! (Except not getting this email until too late, but we'll deal with that if it becomes an issue). PLEASE VOTE at http://www.oasis-open.org/apps/org/workgroup/xri/ballot.php?id=202 <http://www.oasis-open.org/apps/org/workgroup/xri/ballot.php?id=202> & If you are unable to vote and believe you should be a voting member of the TC, please let me know. We will be using these upcoming votes to clean up the membership status of the folks subscribed to the TC. We won't kick anyone off the email list, but rather want to make sure when it comes to important votes that we are clear about who is officially a voting member. THANKS -Gabe
