I'll put the schedule on the agenda for this Thursday's call.

The process for approval of a TC Specification as an OASIS Standard has
been changed, see http://oasis-open.org/committees/process.shtml#procedure
- it has been significantly shortened:

"...

The above submission must be made by the 15th of any month to OASIS TC
Administration, who shall have until the end of the calendar month to
complete administrative processing of the proposed standard; if the
submission is incomplete it may be resubmitted the following month. OASIS
TC Administration shall submit the proposal to the OASIS membership by the
first day of the following month. The first 15 days of that month will be
used by the membership to familiarize themselves with the submission.
Voting will take place starting the 16th of the month. The voting members
of OASIS must submit their ballots by the end of the month.

...
"


Best regards,

Thomas
