Subject: RE: [chairs] OASIS Organizational Voting is Somewhat Absurd?
One approach:
We certainly want to avoid OASIS rubberstamping
randomly-generated specifications, akin to what occurred
here:

else feel this way?” I agree that it may be
suboptimal. Do you have any concrete plans or suggestions for our
perusal? While voting to approve something you haven’t read is a
relatively hollow gesture, it has to be balanced against the other end of the
spectrum whereby a group of three members could get together, have a FUDfest and
create some meaningless specification and get it approved as an OASIS
standard. This lack of scrutiny by all of us weakens the perception and
credibility of OASIS as a credible standards development
organization. I would be interested
in hearing concrete proposals and am open to considering a new model if others
are keen too. Duane |
