Subject: ODF 1.0 Approved Errata 02 -- Next Steps
As we know, the JTC1/SC34 Ad Hoc 3 on ODF maintenance will be meeting on September 15th and 16th in Seattle. One of the topics on the agenda will undoubtedly be the status of the SC34-submitted defect reports. We've processed the first one, and we can certainly have a nice discussion with them on why it has been gathering dust since last November, but we'll also need to account for their 2nd defect report, which we are still processing, and where we are on the critical path. I'd like to have a good news for them on that front. JTC1 rules require that documents brought up in a meeting need to be submitted to NB's 30 days in advance. So that means we would need to have any submission ready by August 15th. OASIS rules require for Approved Errata require us to have two votes and a 15-day public review. So at minimum, once we have the text completed, it would require: Week one to approved a Committee Draft and request a public review Some delay for public review to be announced Two weeks public review Then vote to make the Approved Errata So realistically, this is a 5-6 week minimum turnaround and we won't make it in time for the Ad Hoc meeting agenda cut-off date. However, I think it is a reasonable goal to have the committee draft of the Errata ready in time to start the public review before August 15th. That way we can submit the draft to SC34 and solicit comments. For this to happen, we would need the committee draft ready to approve by our August 10th meeting. Preferably, even a week prior, to give us some margin of error, with vacations and such. Patrick, Dennis, Michael, Andreas and I have been meeting on the side to review the submitted defects, and such responses as we have are posted in JIRA. You can see what resolutions we are recommending here: http://tools.oasis-open.org/issues/secure/IssueNavigator.jspa?mode=hide&requestId=10006 So what do we think? Is this a worthwhile goal? And Patrick, from your perspective, is this a reasonable goal, e.g., are you able to put sufficient time on this between now and August 10th? Regards, -Rob
