[James Bryce Clark <jamie.clark@oasis-open.org>]

OASIS Members:

    This is a Call For Vote to approve the following
Committee Drafts as OASIS Standards:

    WSDM-MUWS v1.0 (Parts 1 & 2)

Ballot:
http://www.oasis-open.org/apps/org/workgroup/voting/ballot.php?id=692

The Committee Drafts have had their required 30 day public review, and
the review materials were sent out to the membership of OASIS for the
required 15-day familiarization period.  (Those materials can be
found at
http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/tc-announce/200502/msg00002.html.) 
As the required review and familiarization periods have now been
completed it is time to vote.  The applicable section of the OASIS
TC Process is at
http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/process.php#standard.

Voting to approve the work product of our Technical Committees is a key
step in the OASIS process, to better assure our broader user community of
the quality and applicability of the methods or TCs create.  We
strongly encourage each member organization to consider the works
submitted for approval and participate by casting a ballot. 

As each OASIS member organization has only one vote, participating
employees of your organization should provide their input to you, their
voting representative, so that you can decide how to vote on behalf of
your organization.  We advise them of this on our general [members]
list, concurrently with this message.

The voting representative from each OASIS member organization should
submit the organization's vote by 11:45 p.m. Eastern Standard Time (US)
28 February 2005.  Voting will be conducted using the OASIS member
database tools.  To cast your ballots, go to the Voting group ballot
page at
http://www.oasis-open.org/apps/org/workgroup/voting/ballots.php. 
You will need to log-in to the database tools
in order to cast your ballots;  if you have not yet obtained your
username and password please contact Scott McGrath
(scott.mcgrath@oasis-open.org) for help.

You may change your ballot until the time that balloting closes. 
Ballots will be publicly archived.  Comments may be made but are not
solicited as the specifications already have been subject to public
review.

Regards  JBC
