[RDFa] Proposal for test process

All,

To enable a smooth and reliable process regarding the 
handling of RDFa TC, I'd like to suggest the following:

1. We (RDFa-TF) define the role of a 'TC responsible' (TCR)
   that is the process owner for all TC-related issues 

2. In case a (not yet covered) feature is expected 
   to be tested, anyone may send a mail with a short
   description to either:
    + this list (public-rdf-in-xhtml-tf@w3.org) using
      [RDFa-TC] as a prefix OR
    + public-rdfa-test@w3.org (yet to be established)

   We should agree on ONE of the two options :)

3. The TCR is then responsible for ...
    +  raising an according issue (in Tracker), and
    +  getting the new TC onto the next telecon's agenda
       for discussion 

4. The fallback for the TCR is the TF chair.


Even though this might sound like a bit of an overkill,
IMHO it is a good thing to define at least an ideal
process that we can refer to and people know what to
expect.

I'd be _very_ happy if we can agree on this process
(or an adapted version) ASAP, to start doing so; cf.
for example DanC's request w.r.t. TC [1].

Note: w3.org seems to be down at the time writing,
      so please be lenient towards me that I did 
      not include references as usual ...

Cheers,
	Michael

BTW: I volunteer to initially fill the TCR role ;)
