Re: [opencsa-liaison] RE: Quick update on DCR

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

Sanjay, let me layout this out in a bit more detail to make sure we
fully understand the scenario:


TC Alpha                                        TC Beta

Alpha WD01     references->    Beta WD01

Alpha WD01  appv'd for CSD & PR w/ DCR motion to -> Beta WD01 becoming
Beta CSD01

                                                  Beta WD01 appv'd as
Beta CSD01

Alpha CSD01 is pub'd w/ reference to Beta CSD01

                                                   New round of work:
Beta WD02 appv'd as Beta CSD02

Alpha CSD01 appv'd for CS01 w/ DCR motion to Beta WD02 becoming Beta CSD02

If I understand correctly, you are asking if the TC could approve
CSD01 to become CS01 with a DCR motion to update the cross-reference
from Beta CSD01 to Beta CSD02. (And obviously not requiring that CSD01
be pushed up to CSD02 and put through another round of public review.)

Am I reading your request correctly?

Thx - /chet
