Jim, and others,
Let me chime in to answer the question
you posed for John. Several of us were at the face-to-face meetings in Las Vegas where these committees
were discussed and defined.
The "Requirements" committee
is doing, essentially, what you described. At face-to-face meetings in Seattle and Las Vegas, their work was the
main topic for exposition and discussion. That work was also discussed during
intervening telephone conference calls. The technical committee, during this
time, was asked to proceed in more strict conformance with OASIS procedures and
rules, and that's why the charter is now before us - to bring the "Requirements"
work in line.
The "Blue Drafting" committee
was defined to work with the products of the requirements group, the
discussions from the face-to-face and telephone meetings of the technical
committee, and the discussions that will take place on the "Blue Drafting"
committee's own e-mail group (to be formed once chartered), and begin
(with our hired consultant) to produce (draft) the "Blue"
specification. Additional face-to-face meetings were scheduled for February (Salt Lake City) and June (Santa Fe), in addition to the
meetings planned for April in conjunction with the OASIS Symposium in New Orleans. All this reflects a
determination to have intensified work focused on actually developing "Blue."
I believe the disconnect you seemed to
note from reading the charters and such reflects how such documents don't
quite reflect the way people actually work. We're not all going to forget
what we said and did when talking "Requirements" when we convene within
the e-mail group for "Blue Drafting" and so forth. Note that any
and all of us can sign on for these committees, as well as for the Technical
Committee itself. Ultimately, the Technical Committee is the parent committee
and will be responsible for decisions and work products.
Perhaps John or others have additional
points that might clarify the situation. I know we all meant to move forward,
not to create barriers to progress.
Regards,
Roger
