This process needs to be defined in detail in the Decision Policy. 74401 1 1188 mjs 2012-09-25 05:00:07 +0000 Created attachment 1188 Patch to decision-policy-v3 outlining such a policy. 74404 2 mjs 2012-09-25 05:05:20 +0000 This is the proposed text in non-diff form: 12. Integration of Extensions during CR Extensions to any of the Working Groups deliverables may proceed as separate extension specifications. At times, such extension specifications may advance more rapidly than the spec they extend (for example, extensions to the HTML spec itself may advance more rapidly). In some such cases, it may be desirable to integrate the extension back into the core specification. 1. Publish a First Public Working Draft of the extension spec To be eligible for integration, an extension specification must be created in the first place, and must reach at least First Public Working Draft maturity level. 2. Satisfy CR exit criteria of the base spec If an extension specification is to be nominated for integration into a base specification, it must first meet the CR exit criteria for the base specification. That is, every feature in the extension spec must demonstrate the level of interoperability that would be required for a feature in the base spec. 3. Nominate by the deadline On entry to CR of any Working Groupspecification, the Chairs will identify a deadline prior to the end of CR for integration of extensions. A Working Group member may enter a nomination for integration at any time prior to the deadline. A nomination for integration must include: 1. The name and URL of the extension specification to be integrated. 2. The name and URL of the base specification it is to be integrated into. 3. Rationale for integration. 4. Evidence showing that the extension specification satisfies the CR exit criteria for the base specification. 5. Instructions for textual integration for the editors of the base spec. These need not be detailed, but editors of the base specification may ask for more detail if required. 4. Call for Consensus If a Working Group member enters a nomination by the deadline, and it contains all of the above required elements, the chairs will put out a Call for Consensus. If the Call for Consensus passes, then editors of the base specification will integrate the extension according to instructions. If objections are raised, objectors should cite rationale, and are encouraged to identify ways in which their objection may be addressed. If there are objections which cite rationale and are not resolved in a satisfactory manner, the Call for Consensus fails, and the extension will not be integrated. It may still be proposed for a future version using the usual issue process. 5. Integration As with any other working group decision, editors will apply integration decisions within a week. 74441 3 rubys 2012-09-25 16:05:34 +0000 (In reply to comment #1) > Created attachment 1188 [details] > Patch to decision-policy-v3 outlining such a policy.
