First sections of the OASIS Editor's Manual available for review and comment

[Chet Ensign <chet.ensign@oasis-open.org>]

Chairs & bcc'ed members, 

Last summer, those of you who are bcc'ed were kind enough to provide the TAB with suggestions on what would be useful to spec editors in a handbook. The TAB has undertaken to produce this in Google Docs. The first three sections are now in shape to present for review. We are pleased to ask you for feedback. Chairs, please distribute this within your TCs as you see fit.  

The sections ready now are: 

1. The role of editor - https://docs.google.com/document/d/1lTartcAzlqidzrCxuXFFiwdRDKRipqMnNsMS24SZdjg/edit# 

2. The Editorial Process - https://docs.google.com/document/d/1gaYTQleiGMRA1vt2sLo1YUXqlGJe-JXgukJvSSlOhRI/edit#

3. Document Structure - https://docs.google.com/document/d/1yA-wt2wB4NOpgoQ81VBfuJ1WPA1GK_BuddiVP_L6BnU/edit

We expect to follow these soon with part 4. Document Preparation with lessons learned, tips, etc for preparing documents and submitting them to the TC and to OASIS staff. 

I have set the permissions so that anyone can add comments. If you have suggestions, corrections, additions, etc. to add, please feel free to comment directly to the documents. If you prefer, you can send your thoughts to tab-askthetab@lists.oasis-open.org.

If you run into any difficulties accessing or commenting on the documents, please reply directly back to me. 

Thanks in advance & we look forward to your feedback. 

Sincerely, 

The OASIS Technical Advisory Board (TAB)
