Re: Please vote to approve/disapprove the new charter

Approve with comments

I would like to have the word “reference” removed from the last sentence, since many types of implementations may/will be tested and most/all will *not* be reference implementations.

Hello all,
Following up on Tuesday's CCG call, the chairs proposed we adopt the new charter and updates process<https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fdocs.google.com%2Fdocument%2Fd%2F15_7noTaKsqN-TBR7VgECpy-H-zS05rNds81GyRw95jE%2Fedit%23heading%3Dh.9fyeyfch5770&data=02%7C01%7Clrosenth%40adobe.com%7C613125b1a1a2442352c608d7dcfbfdf1%7Cfa7b1b5a7b34438794aed2c178decee1%7C0%7C0%7C637220847170956583&sdata=XPCzqwA3DQ3qCPokpRAyV6ySIGaKC1mYRZPo%2BoqPE3M%3D&reserved=0>. This must be adopted following the process in the current charter, which requires a 30-day voting period and 2/3 of votes cast signaling approval[1]

Action requested: We request that you signal your approval/disapproval by responding to this email with "approve" or "disapprove", and then feel free to promptly mute this thread, which may get noisy.

Thanks,
Kim on behalf of chairs

Relevant excerpt:

The group can decide to work on a proposed amended charter, editing the text using the Decision Process described above. The decision on whether to adopt the amended charter is made by conducting a 30-day vote on the proposed new charter. The new charter, if approved, takes effect on either the proposed date in the charter itself, or 7 days after the result of the election is announced, whichever is later. A new charter must receive 2/3 of the votes cast in the approval vote to pass. The group may make simple corrections to the charter such as deliverable dates by the simpler group decision process rather than this charter amendment process.
