Sanjay candidate statement: Have been involved in the SCA specifiations. Worked on several different committees including chairing WS-RX. Very intersted in Business Processes. There were no objections to appointing Anish as co-chair, so duly elected unanimously. There were no objections to appointing Sanjay as co-chair, so duly elected unanimously. 4f.

OASIS Staff available to help. Policies and Procedures available on the OASIS web site. Use Roberts Rules to operate meetings. Charters can be changed using published procedures.

Helps the committee through the oasis process, esp reviews and spec progression. 7 Standing rules A TC can adopt additonal rules, as long as don't contradict the TC process or roberts rules. Motion: Mike Rowley: That there be a standing rule for electronic ballots for motions made on and seconded on the TC email list. Seconded by Mike Edwards. [discusion on current TC process rules] http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/process.php#s2.13 Michael Rowley: 2.13 is where it says that electronic ballots may be used. Martin: the TC process may be ambiguous as to whether a web ballot is considered an electronic ballot Mike R: intention is to allow either email or web ballots Jeff: not sure its a good idea. Should stick to web ballots. Not a good idea to start motions outside of a meeting, without the benefit of a discussion. Chairs can always set up admin ballots. Mark Ford: is the an issue of having multiple open overlapping issues going on? Jeff: hard to keep track on email. Mike R: Agree with most of what Jeff says. The primary value of a motion to be raised by mailing list is where the wording of the motion needs to be crafted carefully and can be done off-line. Ballots out of the blue would be bad. Danny: In response to Mike, def a good thing to craft motions in email. But typically they get crafted, 2nd and could even get ammended this is not good on email. So better to do in a meeting. Jamie Clark: OASIS staff comment: it's one thing to permit a web ballot on a seconded motion made at a live meeting; it's another to permit motions & second to be made async by e-mail. The former (web ballots) are mandated by our rule in some cases, and in all other cases the TC can choose by standing rule to permit or prohibit them. The latter (motions by async e-mail) is (as we understand it) the subject of Mike Rowley's motion now under discussion. Martin: E ballots must last 7 days. Generally against this motion. Mike E: there may not be weekly meetings, so e-ballots would be good. Jeff: a blunt instrument. Two people can create a motion, theres no way to do amendments, so is a bad idea. Jeff motions to substitute the motion to allow web ballots to be used to make binding decisions in the TC. Seconded by Martin. Jamie: don't have to beat this to death this time. Advice adopt any one option for now and co-ord across tcs at the F2F. Sanjay: TC rules do allow for web ballots. Do we need this amendments since its redundant with the TC process. Jeff: maybe redundant, but doesnt do any harm. What Mike R is proposing could be harmful, so better at this stage to stick with what the other TCs have adopted. Mike R: agrees with jamie. do something quickly and move on No objections to the amendment: Motion is amended. No objection to the amended motion. Amended motion passed. 8 Future meetings - F2F logistics - Proposed conf call schedule: TC As has been announced the first F2F meetings and plenary will be in Palo Alto, CA tues-thurs 18-20 Sep 2007: http://www.oasis-opencsa.org/2007-plenary If you have not done so please register at https://www.oasis-open.org/ apps/2007_OASIS_OpenCSA_Plenary/register_contact.php? to help us in logistics planning.

Is this a typo? Martin: test suite can't be done until spec is finished, therfore its implied Jaques: seems very optimistic for a full test suite. Sanjay: doesn't imply a full reference impl. Sanjay: plan this at the F2F. Mike E: there is a requirement that some implemntations exist, not necessarily ref impls. Martin. ref impls are different beasts and are very onourous on a TC. Exit criteria needs two different impls, but not a ref impl. TC roles: Sanjay describes key roles today, and appoint at F2F Key roles: secretary (helps managing action items, web site), Notetaker of meetings (if can't appoint perm one will have to rotate) Specification editor(s): maintain the spec, fold in resolutions, follow templates etc Issues Editor: mainting issues list, track resolutions, publish issues list Liaison: laise with openCSA steering committee, other tcs etc Need to decide what roles we have, and who wants to do these. Anish: some of these roles take more time than others, so if you volunteer make sure you can committ the time and that you have your management support. Will decide at F2F. 10 AOB No items Meeting adjourned. 11 Useful URLs =========== Original Call for Participation http://www.oasis-open.org/archives/tc-announce/200707/msg00012.html - sca-assembly http://www.oasis-open.org/archives/tc-announce/200707/msg00013.html - sca-policy http://www.oasis-open.org/archives/tc-announce/200707/msg00014.html - sca-bindings http://www.oasis-open.org/archives/tc-announce/200707/msg00015.html - sca-bpel http://www.oasis-open.org/archives/tc-announce/200707/msg00016.html - sca-j http://www.oasis-open.org/archives/tc-announce/200707/msg00017.html - sca-c-cpp TC home page: http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/tc_home.php?wg_abbrev=sca-assembly http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/tc_home.php?wg_abbrev=sca-policy http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/tc_home.php?wg_abbrev=sca-bindings http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/tc_home.php?wg_abbrev=sca-bpel http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/tc_home.php?wg_abbrev=sca-j http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/tc_home.php?wg_abbrev=sca-c-cpp TC charter http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/sca-assembly/charter.php http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/sca-policy/charter.php http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/sca-bindings/charter.php http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/sca-bpel/charter.php http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/sca-j/charter.php http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/sca-c-cpp/charter.php Email archive: http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/sca-assembly/ http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/sca-policy/ http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/sca-bindings/ http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/sca-bpel/ http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/sca-j/ http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/sca-c-cpp/ Document repository http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/documents.php?wg_abbrev=sca-assembly http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/documents.php?wg_abbrev=sca-policy http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/documents.php?wg_abbrev=sca-bindings http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/documents.php?wg_abbrev=sca-bpel http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/documents.php?wg_abbrev=sca-j http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/documents.php?wg_abbrev=sca-c-cpp Minutes http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/sca-assembly/minutes.php http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/sca-policy/minutes.php http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/sca-bindings/minutes.php http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/sca-bpel/minutes.php http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/sca-j/minutes.php http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/sca-c-cpp/minutes.php Future F2F meeting schedule http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/calendar.php?wg_abbrev=sca-assembly http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/calendar.php?wg_abbrev=sca-policy http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/calendar.php?wg_abbrev=sca-bindings http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/calendar.php?wg_abbrev=sca-bpel http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/calendar.php?wg_abbrev=sca-j http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/calendar.php?wg_abbrev=sca-c-c++
