Vote Reminder & Our call next week Jan 13th

[Kelvin Lawrence <klawrenc@us.ibm.com>]

First of all Happy 2004 to all,

As a reminder we have a WSS TC call
on Tuesday Jan 13th (agenda to follow soon) - the phone details are in
the on-line calendar.

Hopefully by now you have all had a
chance to read the updated specs (for "core", X.509 and username
as well as the schemas) and submit comments. On the Tuesday call, it is
still the plan as we discussed back in December to do the following:

1. Hold a set of votes to re-approve
all 3 updated specs as committee specs
2. Assuming "1" is passed
then hold a vote to enter the final review phase for the specs and submit
them to OASIS (along with the necessary paperwork that Chris and I as chairs
need to prepare per the process document).

Please make every effort to attend the
call. It would be great to see at least part of our work begin the final
part of its journey to OASIS Standard on Tuesday.

Kind regards
Kelvin
