  8. Making contributions • TC members may contribute existing or new work to the TC for consideration in its work • TC is under no obligation to do anything with it • Contribution only gives OASIS non-exclusive right to use and republish. Full rights remain with the contributor • Process is simple: • Load contribution to TC’s document repository • Send email to the TC mailing list announcing the contribution and including a link to the uploaded file OASIS Presentation to OData TC

  9. Contacts with TC Admin OASIS Presentation to OData TC

  10. TC Process Overview Some other things to keep in mind: • TCs run on Roberts Rules of Order, including its requirements for quorum • To vote, you must maintain meeting attendance • Gain rights at first meeting or after attending two consecutive meetings • Lose rights by missing two consecutive meetings unless during a leave of absence OASIS Presentation to OData TC

  11. Recommendations for Spec Editing

  12. Starting a Working Draft • Except for custom publishing systems, working drafts are done in either .doc or .odt formats • First step is to request a starter document / template from TC Admin • Captures all metadata • TC Admin determines the file names and URLs • Ensures that TC Admin can handle publishing your work expeditiously • Request ticket is at https://www.oasis-open.org/resources/tc-admin-requests/work-product-registration-template-request OASIS Presentation to OData TC

  13. Managing Your Working Draft • The first draft will be labeled Working Draft 01 in the starter document and –wd01 on the filename • Each revision should be incremented (e.g. 02, 03) • Working drafts should be stored in the TC’s document repository • If your spec contains multiple files (e.g. wsdls, schemas) all the content should be zipped into a single file and loaded into Kavi OASIS Presentation to OData TC

  14. Managing Your Working Draft • Use only alphanumeric characters, period and hyphen in filenames. Do not use underscore or any other punctuation characters • Review the Naming Directives at http://docs.oasis-open.org/specGuidelines/ndr/namingDirectives.html for other considerations • Feel free to consult with TC Admin on how best to organize your specification and its components OASIS Presentation to OData TC

  15. General Notes • Do not change the styles defined in the template. Doing so can cause problems when TC Admin prepares to publish your specification • Links to other components should be relative to the specification document’s location • TC Admin will prepare PDF and HTML • Graphics are best prepared in a separate product and linked into the draft as JPGs or PNGs • If your spec will have multiple parts, consult with TC Admin on naming and organization OASIS Presentation to OData TC

  16. Approving a Working Draft • Make sure required sections are in the specification • Normative & non-normative references sections • Acknowledgements section • Conformance section (if going to public review) • Separate plain-text files for any normative computer code files included in the document • Combine all components that are part of the Draft (e.g. narrative files, schemas, examples) into a ZIP file and load the file to the TC’s document repository OASIS Presentation to OData TC

  17. Approving a Working Draft • Vote can be by motion in a regular meeting or by electronic ballot • If by motion, make sure the motion language and vote is recorded in the meeting minutes • If by e-ballot, must run minimum 7 days • Motion language must include name and version number of the work product and the link to the ZIP file • After approval, enter appropriate tickets for TC Admin using the same ZIP file link OASIS Presentation to OData TC

  18. Approving a Working Draft • Approvals may not be contingent on “final edits” or other changes • The file the TC approves must be the same as the file linked in the TC Admin ticket OASIS Presentation to OData TC

  19. Managing Public Reviews • Comments may only be accepted via the TC’s –comment@ mailing list. No other inputs can be accepted • Chairs should subscribe to –comment@ list. TC should designate someone to subscribe and manage comments • All comments must be acknowledged. All comments must be tracked and a log maintained of all comments and the TC’s decisions on their resolutions OASIS Presentation to OData TC
