Mary,
 
Thanks for the feedback. We went over the plan today on our call and with
Hal Lockhart's help we retooled it. I think the new version conforms to the
new procedures that you indicatd. I will be posting an updated version later
today.

Hi Jeff, 

  I was looking at the SPML 2.0 approval plan and just wanted to make a
couple of comments. We're now operating under the new TC

Process Policy which went into effect on 4/15/05. Under this policy, the
process is a bit different now. Committee Drafts are now

used to set "stakes in the ground" - anyone who is a member of the TC at the
time a CD is passed (majority vote) are obligated under

the IPR policy. When a document is ready to be submitted for public review,
the TC votes to create a Public Review Draft (again,

majority vote). Public Review Drafts are submitted for a minimum of 60 days.
Subsequent reviews, if required, are limited to changes

and can be conducted for a minimum of 15 days. 

After the TC has made whatever changes necessary and are satisfied with the
work product, they can hold a vote for Committee

Specification. This vote is actually conducted by the TC Administrator (me
in this case) and requires a special majority to pass. A

second or simultaneous vote can be held to submit to membership for
standardization (also special majority). 

Details can be found in the TC Process

If you have any questions, feel free to contact me. 

Regards, 

Mary
