Re: [chairs] IMPORTANT: need to set up your membership rosters

[Karl Best <karl.best@oasis-open.org>]

We don't have the granularity of permissions to allow someone to post 
messages but not to vote or to count towards quorum. Roles in Kavi are 
either Read-Write or Read-Only for all functions, not for individual 
functions. (The Chair and Secretary roles have additional permissions 
for Create to set up new events, ballots, etc.) We've requested that 
Kavi look into making permission settings more granular, but this will 
have to be a future enhancement.

The only workaround at this point is to make individual TC lists 
moderated; anyone could send a message but the chair would have to 
decide whether the message gets sent to the list.
