Re: Kris - Don: Moving Ahead With the Release Management Stage-2 Proposal

Hi all,

It's difficult to make the discussion and vote schedule when no one responds to the request for help. I don't want to see this squashed for that reason. We've been working on it for a long time.

Stan, I can make sure that we talk about the technical questions at today's TC meeting.

More than that, no. Remember that a proposal needs to be presented one week and voted on a subsequent week -- and this proposal hasn't even been up for any sort of discussion before.

Best,
Kris

Hi there --

 

The TechComm SC just met to review final updates (we believe) to the Troubleshooting topic and the Release Management proposals.

 

Regarding the Release Management proposal (13102), Tom has received no feedback from the TC regarding the technical questions that he identified. Not sure whether the lack of response is attributable to universal assent, August vacations, or something else.

 

With two TC meetings left, Tom plans to focus his proposal update exclusively on adding <prolog> metadata to support downstream (upstream?) systems able to use that data.

From your perspective, would there be sufficient time to have TC members review the simplified proposal via email this week and then do a vote at the final (08/27) TC meeting?

 

What do you think? Can we squeak this one through?

 

Thanx,

Stan
