45 issues to go + On the Status of ISSUEs (Raised, Open, Pending Review)

Hi Team,


as you know, the deadline for raising new issues has passed. 45 issues 
have been submitted and are documented against the "compliance current" 
product in our tracker:
  http://www.w3.org/2011/tracking-protection/track/products/5
You have until October 16 to ensure that the documentation (change 
proposals, rationale, ...) are completed for all new issues (see plan 
for details).

I received questions what the meaning of the state of an issue is 
("raised", "open", "pending review").

At this point in time, we intend to use the status roughly as follows:
- "raised": Issues that are not yet under active discussion.  People may 
still discuss them on the list, submit, withdraw, or modify change 
proposals in preparation for our later group discussion.
- "open": Issues that are under active discussion by the group (as 
announced in an agenda), i.e., they appear in our weekly call in the 
various stages of our discussion.
- "pending review": The change proposals have been frozen and we try to 
determine consensus on one of the alternative change proposals.
- "closed": Consensus has been determined and has been documented by 
updating the working draft.

If you have questions/comments/feedback, feel free to drop me a line.


Regards,
matthias
