Suggestion for rewriting Guideline 4. Rationale. The current Guideline 4 introduces the notion of QA process, but there is no discussion of what the QA process is. The Checkpoints identify only 1 aspect of what needs to be done - staffing. A QA process should include much more regarding the functions and responsibilities, procedures, communications, etc. Since I don't see this covered elsewhere, I propose the following for consideration. Guideline 4. Establish the QA Process QA process describes the responsibilities and functions needed to enable the WG to produce QA materials. The process should ensure that the work is accomplished in an open, consensus-based manner. It should address the procedural issues, communication channels, and structure and staffing. Checkpoint 1: develop a QA Process document [P1] Checkpoint 2: Designate a QA subgroup or task force Checkpoint 3: Appoint a QA moderator Checkpoint 4. Provide communication mechanism(s) Checkpoint 5. Allow contributions Checkpoint 6. define criteria for reviewing and evaluating contributions Checkpoint 7: define versioning of test materials --lynne
