Re: FW: [ws-tx-editors] Editors instructions

[Ian Robinson <ian_robinson@uk.ibm.com>]

My goal is not to burden the editors with unnecessary overhead. I don't
anticipate any dismay from the TC over having to read a Word doc rather
than a PDF in order to comment on whether these are ready to approve as
CDs. But I have been wrong before. We certainly will need PDFs of the CDs.
If we get a request from a TC member to produce PDFs even of WDs then we
can discuss this but I hope (for the editors' sakes) that this shouldn't be
necessary.

Ian,

> We don't need to generate new PDFs yet. We will produce PDFs whenever
the
TC adopts a new CD.

I suspect, posting the .doc version of the specifications, without
producing the equivalent PDF files, may cause confusion.

Do you feel that we should upload the PDF versions as well?

Thanks.

Hello Editors,

Per the discussion on the telecon last week, please can you get updated
drafts to the TC by EOD Tues 7 March.

Please use the following conventions to ensure consistency:

On the front page of each spec, please ensure you use the appropriate
"doc
identifier", "location" and "Technical committee" name and correct form
of
statustext.

1. Doc identifier value (this value should be on the line following
"Document Identifier" and in the page footer)
wstx-wscoor-1.1-spec-wd-03
wstx-wsat-1.1-spec-wd-03
wstx-wsba-1.1-spec-wd-03

2. Location value:
http://docs.oasis-open.org/ws-tx/wstx-wscoor-1.1-spec-wd-03.pdf
http://docs.oasis-open.org/ws-tx/wstx-wsat-1.1-spec-wd-03.pdf
http://docs.oasis-open.org/ws-tx/wstx-wsba-1.1-spec-wd-03.pdf

3. Technical committee
OASIS WS-TX TC
(Note upper case WS-TX)

4. Status.
The first line of the status section should state:
This document is published by the WS-TX TC as a "working draft".

Please use a file name that is the doc identifier with a ".doc" file
extension e.g wstx-wsba-1.1-spec-wd-03.doc
We don't need to generate new PDFs yet. We will produce PDFs whenever
the
TC adopts a new CD.

The issues that we want to incorporate in these drafts are listed below
by
spec.

WS-Coordination

Issues: 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 12, 13, 15, 17, (18-21)

WS-AtomicTransaction

Issues: 15, 17

WS-BusinessActivity

Issues: 7, 15, 17,

Ian
