Correction - we have 13 out of 274, that means 29 to go.  But it's 
changing by the minute.

John,

  
 

  
We have 11 votes so far - still 50 to go!  Total of 296 voters - so 
  I'm sure our members know people they can ask.

  
 

  
I've pinged 25 people so far - its quick and easy to do via the UI OASIS 
  has.

  
 

  
Just go to this link - scroll down for someone you know - and click the 
  link to ask them to vote!

  
 

  
 http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/ballot.php?id=933

This 
  will also tell you if they have voted already.

  
 

  
Thanks, DW

OK folks 
    here we go, GET VOTING NOW PLEASE.  If you are not sure who the voting 
    rep is for your organisation follow the link below and you'll find out. 
     Make sure you badger them to vote.

This is the conclusion of 4 
    years work for the TC and is an essential step towards our agreed goal of 
    making EML an ISO standard, so let's make it 
    happen.

John

Subject: [voting] OASIS Call for Vote - 
    EML v4.0

OASIS Members:

This is a Call For Vote to approve 
    the following Committee Specification as an OASIS Standard: 

Election 
    Markup Language (EML) v 
    4.0

Document:
http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/download.php/15924/

Ballot:
http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/ballot.php?id=933

The 
    Committee Specification has had its required 60 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/200601/msg00000.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.  I 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 point that out 
    to them, 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) 31 January 2006. 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
() 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.
