XLIFF TC Charter for 2.0
Title: Message

Hi Mary,

 

Could you please coach us on the best path for us 
to take regarding our charter?  Given our conclusion of work, and passing 
XLIFF 1.2, and the TC's agreement that our next significant work will be XLIFF 
2.0, we want to be sure our charter is up-to-date, and reflects the newest set 
of goals.  Are we required to do Charter clarification (http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/process.php#charterClarification), or Recharter (http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/process.php#rechartering), or are we permitted to continue under our current 
charter (http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/xliff/charter.php)? I'm not asking you to look into your crystal ball and 
spirit up the future of XLIFF 2.0 against the current charter (though if you 
really could, I wouldn't stop you!).  I was just a bit unclear about the 
requirements when a TC advances to the next version of its 
specification.

 

I think minimally we'd need to update the charter 
to reflect the fact that XLIFF 1.2 passed and is an OASIS Standard 
now.

 

In re-reading the existing charter, my personal 
opinion is that it is a bit stale, and needs some wordsmithing.  But I'm 
not entirely sure it fails to reflect our current goals (a discussion for the TC 
to have, for sure).

 

Thanks,

 

Bryan
