Doug is working on another set
of docs that fixes the date in the footers, etc. You should hear from him
very shortly.

Hi Sanjay,
 
  I understand your frustration,
and wish that my inbox had been empty when your request arrived. I wish
that I had a department so that I could distribute the workload. I wish
OASIS had a publications department that handled all these details for
the TCs. It's good that my mailbox isn't empty - it means that we have
65+ technical committees that are actively producing work, posting messages,
and asking questions. It means that new TCs are forming because they want
the work be to done under the OASIS TC Process. It means that there is
only one set of rules and each TC is subjected to that same set, without
prejudice or favoritism.  I told both you and Paul that I would do
my best to get the ballots running by Tuesday; I worked until 11:45pm last
night to try to make that happen. I was stunned to see that the documents
were all dated 5 April 2007. 
 
No, the TC Process cannot be short-circuited;
it is the cornerstone of our organization and governs all of our work.
While at times that may seem frustrating, it's really a very, very good
thing. And while it's already an excellent process, we're constantly striving
to improve it, which really means improving the quality of not just our
process, but of our specifications themselves.
 
  I will get the ballot started
as soon as I am provided with links or a zip of the corrected documents
and verify that the date is now correct.
 
Regards,
 
Mary

Hi Mary,
 
This is really frustrating. The
drafts have been seating in your inbox since the night of last Thursday,
and you are telling us just one hour before the planned starting of the
ballot about a very simple issue that can now potentially upset the entire
planning of this TC.
 
We were really hoping that the
electronic ballots get started today. As I mentioned in my many emails
to you that starting the ballots today was critical from the pov of having
at least a day between closing of the ballot and the TC conf-call. It was
also important to start the ballot today in order to allow for submitting
the specification set for OASIS standard by mid-month. I am hoping that
it is still possible to go ahead with the plans for OASIS standardization.
 
Is the correction of date only
thing stopping you from opening the electronic ballots? Assuming you get
a copy of the corrected specifications tomorrow, can we still open the
ballots tomorrow that will close on 4/10. Technically, the ballot would
still be open for 7 days.

Hi Sanjay, Paul, and editors
 
  I was just about to get
the CS/OS ballots set up and doing a quick check on the documents when
I noticed that the date on all 3 specifications says "5 April 2007".
Not sure where that came from as the CDs were approved on 29 March 2007.
I'll need corrected copies before I can start the ballot.
