After consultation with W3C team members and our staff contact, I propose
that if agreement on the issue of the semantics of non datatyped literals
does not emerge, the following process for making a decision will be
used. This process is similar to that used by other working groups.
We will hold an electronic vote by email. One vote per member organization
is permitted. Invited experts are also permitted to vote. Voters must be
in good standing with the WG. For the vote to be decisive, a quorum of at
least 50% of the constituency must cast a vote. Ideally, we are seeking
consensus, however a majority of two thirds (rounded to the nearest
integer) of those voting will be sufficient to make a
decision. Abstentions will be recorded but will not count as votes in
determining whether a sufficient majority has been achieved.
Schedule:
11/Oct/2002 discuss issue at telecon
ballot opens after telecon
17/Oct/2002 ballot closes noon uk time
18/Oct/2002 Actions arising from decision discussed at telecon
