http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=10524

           Summary: Please clarify procedure and recourse for non-working
                    group members when they are unsatisfied with a bug
                    resolution
           Product: HTML WG
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: All
               URL: http://dev.w3.org/html5/decision-policy/decision-polic
                    y.html
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: working group Decision Policy
        AssignedTo: dave.null@w3.org

The boiler plate editor's bug resolution response states: "If you would like to
escalate the issue to the full HTML Working Group, please add the
TrackerRequest keyword to this bug, and suggest title and text for the tracker
issue."

So a non-working group member can ask that their bug be escalated. However, if
a working group member does not write a change proposal and champion said
issue, the issue is closed. 

Is filing a formal objection their only option if that happens?

Please explain in the decision policy the:

* Procedure non-working group members should follow where it differs from WG
members.
* Recourse/options non-working group members have if they are 1.) unsatisfied
with a bug resolution, 2.) they don't want to join the working group, and 3.)
no working group member volunteers to write a change proposal on their behalf. 

Thanks.
