For reference, the official OASIS definition (which is left up to each TC member to determine whether or not they feel any change is outside the scope of this definition) is noted at https://www.oasis-open.org/policies-guidelines/tc-process#dNonmaterialChange "Non-Material Change" is any change to the content of a Work Product that does not add or remove any feature of the Work Product and that: (a) constitutes only error corrections, editorial changes, or formatting changes; or (b) is a pro forma change to content required by TC Administration. It is generally accepted that updating references, adding clarifying test, fixing typographic errors, general clean up of prose are all within the definition of what constituents a non-material change. Changing an item from optional to mandatory would not be within the definition - tying this back to Mike's comments on the DSA proposal. On the DSA ballot at https://www.oasis-open.org/apps/org/workgroup/pkcs11/ballot.php?id=2458 I noted "Assuming the typos noted by Oscar are fixed this looks good to me - but Mike's comments and Bob's response I think are an item to perhaps go into the usage guide." (with the Bob being referred to in that context being Bob Relyea). Changing the SUBPRIME behaviour from mandatory to optional (with a default) which is not what is in the proposal would require an updated proposal and another ballot. It is not something which can be conditionally voted into a balloted proposal via comments. Tim.
