Re: Contradictory statements regarding end of TC's lifecycle in the SCA-C/ SCA-J charters

Sanjay,

Issue agreed. The text " Ratification of the above
specifications as OASIS Standards, including a brief period to address
any errata, will mark the end of the TC's lifecycle. will be removed
from the two charters.

It is the intention of the charters to ensure that the
life cycle of each TC must include a period of maintenance until there
is confidence that the deliverables are stable.

Title: Contradictory statements regarding end of
TC's lifecycle in the SCA-C / SCA-J charters

The charters for the SCA-C and the SCA-J have
the following statement under the Deliverables section:

Ratification of the above specifications as OASIS Standards, including
a brief period to address

any errata, will mark the end of the TC's lifecycle.

I think the above statement conflicts with what is said under the Maintenance
sub section of the Deliverables section in the same charters:

Once the TC has completed work on a
deliverable and it has become an OASIS standard, the TC will enter "maintenance
mode" for the deliverable. ...
