Re: SUO: An idea for making progress




Jim,
You are suggesting yet another vote on these same documents.  

Calls for comments may be done without a vote.  Your message suggests 
that the real reason for a vote is "whether to raise each document to 
'Working Draft' status". As far as I can determine there is no IEEE or 
IEEE-SA definition of a "Working Draft"  (or "Starter Document" either). 
 It appears from your past messages that you invented these terms and 
gave them the definitions you wished.  Now you want to call a vote on 
whether to elevate one or more of these documents to a status of your 
own invention.

Just ask members for their comments.
