Subject: RE: Resend, clarification needed [[Re: test for WS-Calendar CSD]]
1) I acknowledge neither one was named in the roll call vote. 2) TimeStamp is a throw-away. We made it, we're done with it, in conversations it is assumed. The TC has not spent any bandwidth on it since the initial production. We were asked to do it by parts of the national smart grid process. It is not part of the service interactions we are defining elsewhere. You can delete it or publish it as you please. As I have stated repeatedly, it is a side issue. If you doubt that, you can ask the TC. 3) You as TC Admin may declare whatever you want. If you want to say that you want another roll call vote two weeks after first because you finally notice, that is your right. It will be my right to complain. 4) The components that are included in ws-calendar.xsd are all in iCalendar-wscal-extensions.xsd. If you think I am not representing the sense of the TC accurately, well, we can ask them. If you think it is useful to have non-consensus non-standard alternate schemas on the OASIS site in perpetuity, go for it. The relevant issue is, as *you* highlight, ** the constituent parts cannot advance independently of each other or stand on their own**. The ambiguity is that TimeStamp was not explicitly included in the zipped file that I sent. To be consistent and punctilious, you should include both or exclude both. Including both is clearly more harmful. Excluding both is a better fit with the process as outline below, but if that is the intent, I am not sure why you keep coming back to try to include them. Whether you want to stretch this out for another week is up to you. I invite anyone on the TC who is feeling misused by my "misrepresentations" to chime in. tc "If something is not worth doing, it`s not worth doing well" - Peter Drucker Toby Considine TC9, Inc TC Chair: oBIX & WS-Calendar TC Editor: EMIX, EnergyInterop U.S. National Inst. of Standards and Tech.

Hear me: this case is not a big deal. But you can see how ambiguities left unattended could become serious problems. Since January 3, I have spent several **whole days** on this very problem: TCs that got to OS or CS, then started debate with TC Admin about what files are actually part of the Standard/Spec, and files that "should have been" part of the public review(s). ============ But read on if you're interested about how the current rules impact this, as a matter of clarity. Neither schema named above is in the WD (-16) WS-Calendar that was balloted. But you want me to take your word (in a private conversation) as to "yes" and "no." Note "single Work Product Ballot" below. Handbook: http://docs.oasis-open.org/TChandbook/Reference/WPQualityRequirements.html "The Work Product, even if multi-part, must have a single name and version number, and must be approved at each stage by a single Work Product Ballot. **That is, the constituent parts cannot advance independently of each other or stand on their own**." http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/process-2010-07-28.php#quality-multiPar t "Irrespective of the number and status of the constituent parts, the Work Product as a whole must be approved by a single Work Product Ballot.
