Summary: should we go ahead and publish bp as it stands today? vote asap. Following the emails of yesterday [1] [2], there's been some disagreement about whether it might still be possible to publish Best Practices. The chairs have agreed to hold an email vote this week; deadline is the end of the usual meeting time (about 26 hours from when I'm sending this). If you have a problem with this deadline, please say so, but we don't have a lot of options. We wont physically be able to publish until January, so if you have a procedural complain in the next two weeks, there will be time to consider it. There will be an informal meeting, at the usual time tomorrow, during which people can discuss BP if they want, but the email votes will be what counts. The document under consideration is here (frozen): https://dvcs.w3.org/hg/gld/raw-file/4dbafa673d70/bp/index.html and the diff from Friday's version is here: https://dvcs.w3.org/hg/gld/raw-file/default/bp/diff-1213-1218.html Please respond via email with a vote (+1 if you support, 0 abstain, -1 formal objection, in between to show nuance if you want) on the proposal below. If you would vote higher with some small edit, please provide the edit and we'll try to see if there's email consensus for it. Feel free to make other statements, but please keep it brief. If anyone votes -1 or if only a few people vote +1, the document will be left unpublished (but still in its current location on the web). *PROPOSED: Publish* https://dvcs.w3.org/hg/gld/raw-file/4dbafa673d70/bp/index.html, with minimal edits necessary to make it pubrules compliant and fix simple typos. We believe that the document in its current form expresses Best Practices for publishing Government Linked Data. We understand it might be updated by another group in the future or might remain as-is. Thank you for your prompt response. -- Sandro (in consultation with the chairs & Phil) [1] http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-gld-wg/2013Dec/0069.html [2] http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-gld-wg/2013Dec/0071.html etc
