Re: epubcheck RFP draft - please comment by EOD Wednesday May 16th

Tzviya-

I didn’t mean to send the RFP to the whole BG at this point. I apologize for starting the conversation last night seeming to go in that direction.

I meant more that we need the BG to give input on the biggest issues to solve from a business perspective so that we can make sure that these can be used as examples and are included in the work that we are asking to have done in the proposal.

I do think that we need to take care that the people who might respond to the RFP shouldn’t write it. If we need more volunteers to help, we could reach out to specific people or a call for volunteers and open up the doc on a much more limited basis.

Thanks for raising this.

Liisa

Hi All,

I have some hesitation about sending the RFP to the whole BG. I am all for transparency, but doesn’t this leave room for the people who will be responding to it to write it?

Perhaps we can email the BG list and ask for volunteers to help? There must be people who have experience with this.

Thanks,
Tzviya

Publishing Steering Committee,

Many thanks to Luc and Garth for their feedback on the RFP draft. We are missing comments from a number of the SC members though. Please contribute your responses by end of day Wednesday May 16th so that we can isolate any comments that require further discussion from the group and resolve the remainder.

Please adjust your "editing" preference to "suggesting" in google docs before adding/removing contents so it is easy for us to track feedback.

Hello Steering Committee,

Tzviya and I have created the first draft of the epubcheck RFP. There are some obvious gaps where more information needs to filled in and we of course welcome feedback.
