Subject: Inter-SCA TC Liaison Committee Charter - FINAL DRAFT
Hi, Here's the edited version of the draft. cheers, jeff OpenCSA Inter-SCA TC Liaison Committee (LC) The OPenCSA Inter-SCA TC Liaison Committee is chartered to provide an official forum for the discussion by the TCs of common issues that cross SCA TC boundaries.Its membership shall consist of of representatives from each SCA TC (at least one from each TC), OpenCSA Steering Committee members, and possibly other invited TC members. The OpenCSA SC shall appoint the members for one-year renewable terms. Each SCA TC shall recommend to the SC at least one member to represent itself on the LC. The actual composition and number is flexible in order to accommodate changing needs and requirements. However each SCA TC should have at least one TC member to represent its interests and to assure reliable communications. It is also contemplated that the SC should also have at least one of its members serving to ensure a reliable communication channel between the SC and the Committee. All of the Committee's work shall be visible to the public (i.e. all documents, email archives, agenda, discussions, shall be publicly viewable). The Committee, as its first order of business shall elect a Chair. In the absence of such an elected Chair the SC member shall serve as a pro tem chair until such time as the Committee can elect one. LC meetings, (teleconference and/or face to face) shall be posted in advance. The meetings shall be open to other MS and TC members as observers. Observers may participate in meetings at the discretion of the chair. Any eligible OASIS member may subscribe to the LC mail list and post to it. The LC may use whatever tools seem appropriate to organizing its work, provided they meet the above criteria of public visibility and are approved by OASIS. The purpose of the LC is to provide a forum for the discussion of common issues that cut across the SCA TCs. The LC is not a decision making body in the sense that is only empowered to make recommendations to the appropriate TCs or SC. All of its recommendations are non-binding and advisory. The LC must not disenfranchise the role and responsibilities of the TCs in technical discussions. The LC will not discuss issues which are the sole purview of any single TC. The LC will only work on issues passed to it by requests made to it by the SC or other TCs with the view towards making timely recommendations. The LC may re-discuss an issue should a recommendation be rejected by one or more TCs. The kinds of activities within its scope are: the discussion of common process issues, the tracking (not resolution of) of cross TC technical issues to make sure the designated TC liaisons are aware of them and that the relevant TCs take appropriate action, the making recommendations to the SC of other actions it might take to improve coordination of the work of the OpenCSA TCs. Contemplated areas where liaison will almost certainly be required are exemplified by start-up issues (naming, versioning, logistics), test suite issues that cross TCs, logistics (e.g. scheduling face-to-face meetings), and close-down issues (scheduling, exit criteria, etc.) -- Jeff Mischkinsky jeff.mischkinsky@oracle.com Director, Oracle Fusion Middleware and Web Services Standards +1(650) 506-1975 Consulting Member Technical Staff 500 Oracle Parkway, M/ S 4OP9 Oracle Redwood Shores, CA 94065 --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe from this mail list, you must leave the OASIS TC that generates this mail.
