Subject: call for vote

Team,

Please vote YES, NO, or ABSTAIN on each of the following proposals.
Please
vote by the end of 10/10. Thanks:
(1) Remove Section 8.1.
      Rationale: Per our agreement and work, the functionality provided
by
Section 8.1 is now fully supported by the revised Section 8.2.
(2) Adopt the revised Section 8.2.
      Rationale: The revised Section 8.2, as proposed by Len, is
consistent
with the draft RIM 1.1 and has no major issues left unresolved.
      Background: On page 6, HasPathBranch is left with three
alternatives,
with the following understanding:
          (a) PathFilter: This is completely specified given Len's new
proposal to add ClassificationNode.getLevelNumber() in RIM.
          (b) XpathNodeExpression and PathElementFiler: These will be
removed unless their associated issues are resolved in time.
(3) Move Section 8.4 to Section 8.1.
      Rationale: Ad Hoc Query covers FilterQuery and SQLQuery and should
be
discussed before them.
      Result: Section 8.4 will be left empty and to be fixed editorially
later.

Regards,  Dan
