WS-Calendar CSD needs conformance clauses before it can be published as a Committee Spec
Members of the WS-Calendar TC,
When we began work on preparing the Committee Specification for WS-Calendar Calendar Update and Synchronization with REST-based Services Version 1.0, we discovered that the draft lacked the conformance clauses section. For Committee Specifications, that section is required. As a result, I have stopped work on the CS.
I ask that you to do the following:
- Create a new Working Draft with the conformance clauses added  - Approve it as usual as a Committee Specification Draft and approve it be released for public review  - After that round of public review - and assuming no further material changes are needed - request a new Special Majority Vote to approve it as a Committee Specification
I apologize to you all for not catching this before you held the ballot.
If it is helpful, here is a link to the TAB's 'Guidelines to Writing Conformance Clauses' -  http://docs.oasis-open.org/templates/TCHandbook/ConformanceGuidelines.html
And in addition to the conformance clauses in WS-Calendar ( http://docs.oasis-open.org/ws-calendar/ws-calendar-spec/v1.0/cs01/ws-calendar-spec-v1.0-cs01.html#_Toc296626553 ) here are links to some other samples of conformance clauses I think work well:
