Project Approval Request by the InM WG of the Infrastructure SD for Notifications at Project Insight 1516
Note from Anne: This was originally approved by the TSC in April, but has since had a name change, sponsor/steering division change, and added cosponsors.
This project's PSS deadline extension request was approved yesterday, one day after the NIB deadline. From the WG:
Dear TSC,
The sIRB project team is requesting an extension for the NIB. We were not able to complete a NIB because the PSS was not submitted to the TSC by the timeline. This week the TSC has granted us an extension for the PSS which will be submitted to the TSC soon. We hope you will also grant the NIB extension so we can ballot this January before our funding ends in April.
affirmative: Voting affirmative - however, when an organizational member's key voting representative changes, does the organization need to have new proxy statement drawn up for all of its other voting members? (And what if that happens after a ballot and both the commenter and the key representative have left the company)? (Floyd's comment)
refer to telecon: In recalling the FHIR R4 vote, we learned that the name voter had left and no other org rep would agree to remove the negative, even though it was obviously invalid. Unless we can be sure there is a current rep (either primary or proxy) this can happen again. I think that if we can't contact anyone from an org, the org's prior negative votes should be considered non-applicable anymore. Otherwise we could get trapped again.
refer to telecon: The idea of a deputy is good,but I agree with Wayne that it might be useful to have also a "break-the-glass" solution
negative: This states "who, with the addition of the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Technology Officer, and the Executive Director or in their stead the Associate Executive Director" - "who with" creates a group - CEO, CTO and ED. The use of the pronoun "their"(plural possessive pronoun, and means “belonging to them) indicates that the AED may sit in replacement of the group CEO and CTO and ED. This allows the Chair, vice-chair, Secretary, Treasurer and AED to constitute the EC.
negative: I believe that this one should be taken off as the GOC needs to fix the last statement about how to find out about the results of a vote to bring it in line with the rest of the voting verbiage (i.e. not restricted to just voting members of an affiliate).
affirmative: lines 13-15. This restricts requesting the results of an election to named voting representatives of Affiliates, but we allow affiliate members to stand as co-chairs and to vote on elections. It seems wrong that I can be a co-chair but not request election results
