Re: [chairs] Discontinuing Applicant and Prospective Member roles

[Kelvin Lawrence <klawrenc@us.ibm.com>]

Scott, thanks for the update.  A
question below...

You wrote:
When an eligible person requests Member
status, they will be added to the
roster automatically--when the request is approved/confirmed by the Primary
(or self-confirmed in the case of Individual and Associate members) This
process eliminates the need for the old roles of "Applicant",
and
"Prospective Member"--and the need for you to manually transition
members
from those roles.

My question:
Will the approval from the primary rep
still be visible to the chairs or when a person shows up as a member do
we assume the OASIS staff has processed the approval from the Member's
organization primary rep and if necessary chased down that approval? This
week I noticed a change in that I am no longer getting notifications from
the system of the approvals etc. I would appreciate a clarification as
to how this step now works given that Applicant is now a thing of the past.
Thanks

Cheers
