Re: IG charter: status and schedule

Hi Giuseppe,

Thank you for your comments on my draft schedule.

Actually, I would like to speed-up the process as well.:)

The most time-consuming process will be `Review by AC Rep.'.
I've heard from Kaz that, theoretically, it can take infinite time
if any of AC Reps continue to reject the charter.  So we gave
the process a month as our target of effort.

I would like to ask Kaz about the minimum duration of the process
the W3C process document requires.  I think it would be the best
case we can expect.

As for the first half of my draft schedule, I think we had better  
discuss
several topics about the organization of the IG in this period.

For example,

  * the IG should be public or W3C members only?

I remember that, in the workshop, someone said that "Interest Group
could be public" but the other person said that "Interest Group also
requires W3C membership to participate in it".

Which is true?  If both are true, which is more effective?

What do you think?

Yes.  I agree with you.

Yosuke
