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.
