How to start a Committee Note Draft - request template detailed steps

All --

    

    I'm sending this to the list as well as directly to Richard and
    Raphael.

    

    The purpose of a non-standards track work product (Committee Note)
    is to clarify, explain, discuss, analyze, and otherwise improve the
    applicability of TC normative (Standards Track) work products.  

    

    I recommend that a Chair or Secretary of the TC do the following,
    but any TC member may - and the Chairs are notified of the request.
    One request per work product starter.

    

    I also recommend a separate document archive folder to Committee
    Notes (of which this is the first). You need to request a new
    document archive folder called "Committee Notes" using the form at
https://www.oasis-open.org/resources/tc-admin-requests/folder-creation-request

    

    TC Admin requests are at the URI in (1).

    

    

    

    

    (1)    Go to https://www.oasis-open.org/resources/tc-admin-requests
    and under New Work Products select "register & request a work
    product template / starter document"

    

    (2) Enter name of submitter, "
    
    OASIS Message Queuing Telemetry Transport (MQTT) TC" (full name of
    TC), "", "Request/Reply Message Exchange
    Patterns and MQTT"

    

    The Work Product Abbreviation will show up in file names. I
    recommend to the Chairs that we use "reqreply". Filenames will look
    something like  "mqtt-reqreply-v1.0-wd01.docx" and so on for other
    forms.

    

    For Track select "Non-Standards Track Work Product"

    

    Select format as used by the TC. The standard is .doc so I'd use
    "Microsoft Word".

    

    Then enter Chair Names "As it should appear on an approved Work
    Product Cover page" - Richard Coppen, Raphael Cohn, with or without
    middle initials as you like.

    

    Editors can be changed. I suggested Shawn as initial writer, so he
    should be listed. Perhaps Raphael would be another?  Up to the
    chairs. Could call for editors who care enough to
    write/clarify/contribute significantly.

    

    No namespaces.

    

    Then submit the request. The result will appear in the TC document
    archives after a few days (usually); questions will go from tc-admin
    to the TC list.

    Thanks!
