Issue
------
Reference to SOAP should be SOAP/HTTP.
The properties of SOAP as a carrier depend on what SOAP in turn is
carried by. In draft 0.9, line 965 reference to SOAP is therefore
ambiguous. 

Proposed Resolution
--------------------
Change 
  "Note that these assumptions would be met by a mapping to SMTP and
  more than met by mappings to SOAP." 
to
  "Note that these assumptions would be met by a mapping to SMTP and
  more than met by mappings to SOAP/HTTP." 



BT TC Voting Rules
-------------------

Only eligible members of the TC can vote.  Every member of a TC has a
single vote.  Organizations do not vote in TCs.  Proxies are not
allowed in TC voting.    

Votes on technical and editorial issues pass when a majority votes in
favor.  The majority is more than half of the members who vote on the
issue, quorum is required.  Abstention are recorded and count towards
quorum.   If a majority is not achieved the motion will be rejected.
If quorum is not achieved it shall be as if the motion was not
proposed and the vote did not happen.

The chair may propose draft resolutions to the members of the TC for
discussion by mail, to entertain friendly amendments to such draft 
resolutions and make such changes as shall seem most likely to gain
general assent of the members of the TC, to put such resolutions as
seem to have gained majority assent to the members of the TC for a
vote by mail, and to conduct votes on such resolutions by mail.  

Regards,
TC chair
