> 
>

> 
> Our decision on 13 November to request advancement to PR [1] 
> was based in part on my suggestion that we could keep making 
> changes to the test suite during PR and even after Rec.  This 
> suggestion was probably misleading, and I apologize.  During 
> PR, we should only make changes based on new information.  
> After Rec, any changes are handled as normative errata [2], 
> requiring review by the members and a director's decision 
> recognizing consensus.  What other groups have done (and this 
> is what confused me) is make a *non-normative* test suite, 
> not part of their recommendation, which they maintain outside 
> the W3C Rec track review process.  We are free to do that, of course.
> 
> In light of this, DanC, Guus, and I met (we were unable to reach
> JimH) and hereby ask for a decision via e-mail to approve the 
> output of the 20 November meeting [3], recognizing that these 
> will be the last changes to the normative test suite except 
> for possible changes due to new information during PR and 
> normative errata.
> 
> Specifically, proposed are:

>   From: Jeremy Carroll <jjc@hplb.hpl.hp.com>
>   Date: Fri, 21 Nov 2003 10:54:51 +0000
>   Subject: proposal to change some datatype tests from 
> APPROVED to EXTRACREDIT and 
>   http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-webont-wg/2003Nov/0092.html
>   From: Sean Bechhofer <seanb@cs.man.ac.uk>
>   Date: Wed, 26 Nov 2003 11:08:50 +0000 (GMT Standard Time)
>   Subject: Proposal to approve tests
> 
> As part of this, I also propose the Working Group delegate 
> the question of whether the PROPOSED tests stay in the 
> document to Jeremy and Jos.  (Dan and I lean towards them 
> being removed.)
> 
> PLEASE RESPOND TO THE LIST SAYING YES, NO (and state the 
> nature of your objection), OR ABSTAIN by the end of Monday, 1 
> December.  If there is not consensus here, we can work on it 
> at the 4 December telecon, but we'll have to postpone the 
> transition meeting (tentatively scheduled for 8 December) and 
> subsequent publication (9 December), because the meeting 
> needs a 7-day lead time.
> 
> Monday, 1 December, is also the deadline for all editors to 
> put their pencils down and be done with their drafts.  
> (Jeremy can assume the consensus position will hold; if not, 
> there will be a new, later
> deadline.)  Please leave the working group membership list, 
> the Status of this Document section, and the RDF PR 
> references marked with "@@" and I'll paste in the final 
> versions.  I'll be looking at the following URLs, and I'd 
> like confirmation from the associated people.
