Hello everyone, I have started drafting proposed revisions of the Decision Policy document, in consultation with the other two Chairs. Once these revisions are stable, we will present a new version of the policy document for Working Group discussion. As before, we will carefully listen to feedback, and eventually call for Working Group consensus on the revised policy. In the meantime, I wanted to make sure the Working Group is aware of the work. The draft revisions are available here: <http://dev.w3.org/html5/decision-policy/decision-policy-v2.html >. This is at a temporary URL to avoid conflicting with the current version of the Decision Policy, which remains in effect until we have finalized the revisions and gotten sign-off from the Working Group. We're tracking suggestions to change the document (including even our own ideas) through Bugzilla. You can find the list of bugs that have already been addressed here: <http://bit.ly/bSbY0D>. As of this writing, 7 bugs have been resolved. Note that these resolutions are still subject to revision, but they do reflect the changes applied to the document so far. Most of these initial revisions are fairly simple; either clarifications of existing policies, or minor changes to smooth out the process. By the way, note that this doesn't mean that you need to file a bug to make a suggestion or raise a concern with the current policy. It's totally fine to let the chairs know directly, e.g. by email, and we will ensure the request is tracked. There are still some suggestions left to address, you can see the list here: <http://bit.ly/bCIg52>. As of this writing, there are 9 of these. These issues will take a little more time to resolve, as they generally require more involved edits, or additional consultation among the chairs. Regards, Maciej
