Fwd: Re: RegRep 4 approved as Committee Specification

[Farrukh Najmi <farrukh@wellfleetsoftware.com>]

FYI...

It looks like we need to conduct our vote through OASIS staff for appro9ving a Committee Specification :-(

Somehow that did not jump out at me when I read the process.

I will go ahead and make the request for a Committee Specification Ballot at http://www.oasis-open.org/resources/tc-admin-requests as suggested by Chet.

Hi Farrukh, 

Well actually, per the TC Process, the approval of a CSD as a Committee Specification has to be done by Special Majority Vote in a ballot run by TC Administration. See http://www.oasis-open.org/policies-guidelines/tc-process#committeeSpec . You'll have to give me a request thru the TC Admin request page. 

You can put in a request for a Committee Specification Ballot at http://www.oasis-open.org/resources/tc-admin-requests and then I will set up the ballot and send the announcement. Ballots are quick to set up so I will respond to that request as soon as I see it on our system. 

Then, as far as the submission for consideration as an OASIS Standard, the URL will be to the CS version. You and I can work out that URL in advance so that you can put in the request while we are putting the CS copy together.

Hi Chet,

The RegRep TC approved "OASIS ebXML RegRep Version 4.0 Committee Specification Draft 02 / Public Review Draft 01
12 May 2011" as Committee Specification earlier today.

We have two Statements of Successful Use and should have the third any day now. One statement is from Wellfleet and Wellfleet is in the process of applying for Organizational membership with OASIS.

We would like to see RegRep 4 approved as an OASIS standard this Calendar year and ideally would like to reach the final ballot before Thanksgiving holiday. With this desire in mind we would like to not have any delays in the process.

I am assuming that as soon as we have the 3rd statement of use, the next step is for us to submit the Candidate OASIS Standard (COS) using this form:

http://www.oasis-open.org/resources/tc-admin-requests/candidate-oasis-standard-submission-request

What I am not sure of is what should be the URI for the COS. Would it be the URI of the csprd01 that we just approved as COS01?

Can you please clarify. Thank you.
