[Fwd: [chairs] RE: New OASIS TC FAQ Pages]

[Tim McGrath <tmcgrath@portcomm.com.au>]

 i just realised what this was about.

Marion suggested that the QA team in LCSC deal with FAQ-type issues.  Shall
we pass this on to them?

OASIS TC chairs,
We've extended the deadline on OASIS TC FAQ pages to 2 September.

At that time, Sharon will add an "FAQ" link to all the TC navs (those
links on the main TC page in the upper right purple box, "Charter, IPR
Statement, etc."). It's a blanket move that will affect all the TCs at
once. If you have not submitted FAQ content by 2 Sept, we'll create a
placeholder page for your TC's FAQ (that says something like 'content
coming soon').

Please let us know if you will be unable to meet the 2 Sept deadline or
if there's anything we can do to assist you. Keep in mind, you can
always edit the FAQ at any time.

Thanks,
Carol

On 25 August, OASIS will be adding a new FAQ page to each TC's public
website. This will make it easier for prospective users, editors, people
who may be considering joining the TC, and others to find answers to
some basic questions on your work.

Each TC will be responsible for creating its own FAQ content. The
following are just general suggestions to get you started; obviously
each TC will have specific FAQ appropriate for its work.

  What is the need for this specification?

  Who should be involved in this development?

  Who will benefit from this work and how?

  How does this work compare with related efforts at other standards
organizations?

  When will this specification be completed?


Please let me know if you need assistance in writing an FAQ for your TC.
Completed FAQs should be sent to support@oasis-open.org before 25 Aug
for posting. You may edit your FAQ at any time after it's posted.

Regards,
Carol
