Rich, It might be worthwhile to allocate some time for ticket 321 in the agenda - not so much to review the ticket, but to review, clarify, and document the process around this kinds of change. I believe Rolf suggested a ticket because, like Pavan noted, this is not a case of a 'ticket 0' type change, so should follow our standard process. However, it is also trivially obvious and the original intent of the text, so I can also see the other side of the argument that we shouldn't waste time at the Forum to review it. -Fab Pavan Balaji wrote on Tue, 14 Feb 2012 at 12:03:40
Can someone clarify what pieces are deemed "chapter committee changes" vs. something that requires voting? My understanding was that grammatical errors that do not change the meaning are the chapter committee's job. While this particular change is trivially obvious, that doesn't fall into the above set of allowed chapter committee changes.
In any case, making a decision over email seems ridiculous. There needs to be an official rule for this. I'm OK with the official rule being "the chapter committee decides on whether a change requires a forum vote or not". But collecting preferences over email is a nonsensical way to do this.

Chapter committee should be fine - we don't need a change-log for NBC (it is not in a release version of the standard, so no change to log), but have not yet looked at the other two areas.

I made a ticket for this, 321, so I could track it and have a way of posting a PDF for folks to take a look (e.g. I'd like the chapter authors for NBC, I/O, and generalized requests to agree to the wording). Beyond that, I don't care how this eventually gets checked into the approved branch, and am happy just merging it and marking it as ticket0 and omitting the changelog entry if that's what folks want.
So far we have:
In favor of full ticket: - Rolf
In favor of chapter committee: - Bill - Dave - Bronis
I'd like to see at least Rich (pt2pt), Torsten (coll), and Rajeev (I/O) chime in with their preference. I already indicated my preference a week ago. I was against a ticket and pro chapter committee. We should lump this into the bulk ticket-0 tickets we have lying around.
