TPWG Compliance Last Call next steps and schedule

Hello TPWG,

Nick completed proposed responses to our Last Call comments on 6 November and Wendy repeated a call for review the following week, with no expressed concerns or objections. We will ask Nick to send out the responses to the commenters.

On issue-268, the comment regarding regulatory compliance, the proposed language includes linking to another document, either the Global Considerations document or a wiki page. We would need members of the Working Group to commit to contributing such a document in order to include that link, otherwise the Group likely should not make a change to the specification. Please note such commitments no later than next Wednesday, December 2nd.

Regarding scheduling, we should plan to transition the Compliance specification to Candidate Recommendation by the middle of December. Gathering implementation experience (of Compliance and the TPE) will continue in the New Year, but should require less of our regular time. Wendy will propose a 6-month extension of the charter, which currently expires 31 December, to give the group time to conduct implementation testing and advance the specifications to Recommendation. The extension will not include any new deliverables, and should require fewer resources moving forward.

Happy US Thanksgiving to those who celebrate it.  And for those who don't, have a good day as well.

Carl
