ISSUE-165: Where and how should an appealable decision be identified

List of Appealable Decisions

Where and how should an appealable decision be identified

State:

CLOSED

Product:

Process Document

Raised by:

Steve Zilles

Opened on:

2015-07-12

Description:

Currently Section 8.2Appeal by Advisory Committee Representatives has two lists of decisions that can be appealed. In addition, certain decisions identified in the document indicate that they can be appealed. It is not clear that the 8.2 lists include all and only the appealable decisions.

Historically, the Process document has tried to avoid listing information twice, such as identifying appealable decisions with the decision and listing what can be appealed separately (as in section 8.2). It has been suggested that the list in 8.2 be reduced to examples of the more important appeals and have text to say that appealable decisions are described where the decision is described. That is the 8.2 text would become informative rather than normative so need not be complete.

See https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-w3process/2015Mar/0114.html
for additional comments on this issue (and on Issue-166)

In addition to the list in 8.2, in the definition of a "W3C Decision" there is another list, this time of decisions, and there is reference to "W3C Decisions" being appealable in section 7.3 Advisory Committee Votes.
