Subject: Results of the OS ballot and next steps for the TC
Members of the TGF TC, The ballot to approve Transformational Government Framework (TGF) Pattern Language Core Patterns Version 1.0 as an OASIS Standard has closed. The ballot received 60 yea votes (82%) and 13 nay votes (18%). You can review the results of the ballot at https://www.oasis-open.org/committees/ballot.php?id=2393. Because the ballot received negative votes accounting for less than 25% of the total votes cast, the TC must now take additional action. In section 3.4.3, Balloting for OASIS Standard approval, it reads: "However, if negative votes are cast amounting to less than 25 percent of the votes that have been cast, the TC shall be notified of the negative votes, after which the TC shall have 30 days to take one of the following actions by Resolution of a Special Majority Vote: (a) request the TC Administrator to approve the specification as submitted despite the negative votes; (b) withdraw the submission entirely; or (c) submit an amended specification, in which case the amended submission shall be considered as if it were a new submission, except that information regarding previous votes and any disposition of comments received in previous votes shall accompany the amended submission. If the originating TC upon notification of negative votes takes no formal action within the 30 days allocated for consideration of the results, then the specification shall not become an OASIS Standard." (See https://www.oasis-open.org/policies-guidelines/tc-process#cos-Submission-ballotingOS) Please pass a Resolution to request a Special Majority Vote for whichever option you choose and send me a link to the minutes or to the resolution ballot. I will await word from the TC on how you wish to proceed. Thanks & let me know if you have any questions on these next steps. /chet ---------------- Chet Ensign Director of Standards Development and TC Administration OASIS: Advancing open standards for the information society http://www.oasis-open.org Primary: +1 973-996-2298 Mobile: +1 201-341-1393
