REQUEST on Adjustments and Reballoting for ODF 1.2 Public Review

["Dennis E. Hamilton" <dennis.hamilton@acm.org>]

 1. I assume that the new ballot will be conducted electronically, given a
motion and a second after the modified documents are available.  That way we
are not hindered by the absence of a meeting on Monday, June 14.

 2. Can we please identify the materials for the ballot as CD05-revo1 so
that what we approve becomes CD06 as approved for submission to Public
Review?  I know that this will be minor for Parts 1-3, but for the
main/master or whatever it is, there will be body as well as front-matter
changes.  (I am attempting to avoid confusion over what particular documents
are and having two documents with the same identification.)

 3. WHAT DO WE CALL THE FRONT PIECE?  It is easy to talk about and refer to
sections in Parts 1-3.  How do we and others refer to the single document
formerly known as Part 0?  It is confusing to call it simply ODF 1.2 CD0x
since that is also the name for the composite set.
  Although it doesn't quite serve the function, I would not object to it
being "Overview" or something (especially if none of Parts 1-3 have such a
section - I haven't checked).  I don't know what should be the title of that
portion, but we need and others need some unambiguous way when we need to
discuss something in that portion of the specification.

In the main specification:
1. In the previous version section, the link to the html file is broken. It
should be: 
http://docs.oasis-open.org/office/v1.1/OS/OpenDocument-v1.1-html/OpenDocumen
t-v1.1.html

2. Section 1 must include terminology and at a minimum a normative reference
to either RFC 2119 or the related ISO reference.


In Part 1:
1. In the previous version section, the link to the html file is broken. It
should be: 
http://docs.oasis-open.org/office/v1.1/OS/OpenDocument-v1.1-html/OpenDocumen
t-v1.1.html
2. All hypertext links in normative and non-normative references must be
activated.


In Part 2:
1. In the previous version section, the link to the html file is broken. It
should be: 
http://docs.oasis-open.org/office/v1.1/OS/OpenDocument-v1.1-html/OpenDocumen
t-v1.1.html
2. All hypertext links in normative and non-normative references must be
activated.


In Part 3:
1. In the previous version section, the link to the html file is broken. It
should be: 
http://docs.oasis-open.org/office/v1.1/OS/OpenDocument-v1.1-html/OpenDocumen
t-v1.1.html
2. Activate trademark link at bottom of Notices
3. All hypertext links in normative and non-normative references must be
activated.
4. Appendix A is empty?


Also, it should be noted that the ballot to approve as CD and submit for
public review is invalid and will need to be conducted again (or approved by
a full majority vote in a TC meeting). The OASIS TC Process requires that
all TC ballots be set to include votes of 'yes', 'no', and 'abstain'; this
ballot was set to yes / no only.


As soon as we updated copies and a new minutes or ballot reference, we'll
proceed with the review.

Regards,

Mary
