  An error in the advertised call-in number was noted on a subsequent
e-mail. 

        

2. Steering Committee nominations/election Status

We have 10 confirmed nominations (9 write-ups) for the 3 vacancies.

Information is on: 

        http://www.oasis-opencsa.org/steering-committee

Candidate Profiles are behind each name. 

Jeff Mischkinsky requested a single page consolidating all profiles:

        ACTION A1: Scott McGrath.

On Monday, Scott will e-mail Members with details of the voting process,

which will consist of e-mail to a new alias userid. 

Votes will be checked by two OASIS staff members and entered into the STV
software. 

Results will be public. 

        

3. Non SC-member attendance in SC meetings

Graham summarized his e-mail proposal regarding how SC-member absences

could be covered, to an extent, by non-SC-member Observers. We agreed that

the following informal process is covered by existing OASIS rules and

required no further documentation: 

- If a Steering Committee Member is unable to attend a call, then he/she
can ask an Observer to take part. 

- The Observer cannot move nor second motions nor can vote, but can request
the chair to participate in discussion. 

- The Chair will decide if certain motions/decisions need to be deferred
until all members are available. 

Consequently we revisited last week's tabled motion:

MOTION: Adopt a policy that member section members be allowed to  

attend Steering Committee meetings as Observers. (Note: As per  

Roberts, the Chair has the discretion to allow observers to comment  

and speak.) Mischkinsky/Patil/UNAN.

4. Other Business 

Our normal S/C Mailing List will be the same as the Member Section m/list:

 

We will retain the Steering Committee m/list for future usage, but will

not use it for S/C Agendas, Draft Minutes or Final Minutes.

5. Motion to Adjourn: Barber/Patil/UNAN.

Action Items

  A1 - Scott will create a single page Election candidate Summary.
