Subject: Re: [bpel4people] Spec Rev 42 Posted and ready for submission
to the TC
Hi Luc,
Just to confirm - is the SC proposing that we review Rev 42 and then vote on it
as a Committee Draft?
[lc]No, I see these as separate issues. We’re
not suggesting a CD. What we want the TC to do is review and agree to the
changes we’ve incorporated so far. That will allow us to accept all
changes to the documents and proceed to the next set of revisions.
That being said, I’d be in favour
of generating Working Draft 03 which could serve as the baseline for the next
set of revisions. Let’s discuss during the next TC call.
[/lc]
That would make sense to me. The conventional
review period for a CD seems to be 1 to 2 weeks maximum in OASIS.

[lc]If the TC so chooses, we can proceed
to a CD. I think though that this is too early given the number of Open issues
and in particular that we have not incorporated BP-16 (RFC2119) and BP-17
(Conformance statements) [/lc]
P.S. I have reviewed OASIS process and the CD upload package must include the
editable source (.doc I presume), HTML and PDF, as well as designating which is
the authoritative source (.doc I again presume).
[lc] For the review, I’d like to
leave it as PDF. The editors have encountered many difficulties in line
numbering used by Word. We were astonished to discover that line numbering differs
between reviewers in North America and Europe, between versions of Word, and
Word for Mac. Doing a review using Word is simply not practical [/lc]

Dave,
The Editors have
completed work on the first batch of edits. This represents Rev 42 of WD-02.
Rev 42 includes all issues identified at [1]. We’ve packaged at [2]
marked up PDFs, and XSD and WSDL documents, and propose to have TC review the
set. I think that we should post [2] to Kavi. If you agree, please do so.
Once the set is
approved by the TC, we plan to accept all changes to the source Word document
and start working on the next set of Resolved Issues.
Please review
and let us know how you would like to proceed.
