The TC can, of course, vote however it wants.
We can do dozens of PRs if we want to.
I imagine quorum will be tough next week. Certainly edits will be slow next week, during the SGIP
The first meeting is after that is the 8 th .
As it stands now, with turn-over, it is * my * * guess * that PR announcements from OASIS will take more than a week to get out. That puts it on the 15 th or later.
I think participation will be way down if we do that instead of extending the message “Here is the draft we voted out for PR, look at it and comment—the announcement will come out soon”. I think that plays better than “Here is a document that you may ignore because we don’t think it’s worth looking at yet”
Others may read the tea leaves differently.

Toby,
I still am not clear on why we need to go to PR to have something to discuss/present in Nashville. It seems we have good reasons to wait so that we can get a clean version of EMIX out. Why does going to PR help make a better “package” to present? And why then can’t we get a PR before Apr 15?
Thanks,
David

It is if course up to the TC to decide what it wants to do, Mr Chair, but if we change anything, we will not start a PR before Tax Day.

Concerning recommended changes to emix submitted before the meeting, will these be ignored until after the PR?

I would suggest that the WS-Calendar schemas be marked "informative" so there's no confusion that EMIX is defining them. This could be an annotation in the schemas or simply in the namespace document. Not sure how to do with "no change" but you seem to be contemplating replacing those with the PR02 WS-Calendar schemas. Thanks! bill

It has been suggested that we put together a package of EMIX work to share with the Nashville SGIP meeting. If you read the recent interpretation of the rules (Monday night) then you know that it cannot include any changes or directions received in tomorrow’s meeting.
You have all seen that EMIX (spec, schemas, and examples) was updated on Tuesday afternoon. If we want to share that work with the SGIP, then we should request a 2 week PR at the meeting.
Please be on the meeting (we need an absolute majority to vote a PR), and familiar with the latest documents and artifacts. In particular, I propose that a Public Review be based on
http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/download.php/41575/emix-1-0-spec-wd20.pdf
and
http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/download.php/41576/emix-1-0-schemas-wd20.zip
The note the other night stated that we must vote these documents, precisely, with no changes allowed of any kind.
We must, unfortunately, continue to carry the WS-Calendar schemas forward in this package as it is unclear if that TC will be able to pull off a second PR vote as they are not scheduled to meet this week.
If we are able to vote itout for PR, I will then propose that we distribute links and information to all PAP04, PAP04, and PAP09 (and the relevant DEWGS) before the weekend before the SGIP meeting.
Thanks
tc
