Last Call Timeline and Action Plan
The HTML Working Group Last Call Schedule/Action Plan is described in the following table. It is based on Maciej Stachowiak's Timeline to Last Call email.
| Date | Action | Responsible | Consequence of Missing Deadline |
|---|---|---|---|
| June 14, 2008 to October 1, 2010 | File Pre-Last Call Bugs in Bugzilla following the guidance in the HTML Decision Policy. | Everyone interested in HTML5 | Bugs filed after October 1, 2010 will be treated as Last Call comments. The Chairs could grant exceptions on a case-by-case basis, but in general there is no guarantee of a bug filed after the cutoff will be settled before Last Call. |
| October 2, 2010 to December 8, 2010 | Address all Pre-Last Call Bugs | Editors | Pre-Last Call Bugs not addressed by the editors by December 8, 2010 may be escalated to issues immediately if the originator so chooses. |
| December 9, 2010 to January 22, 2011 | Escalate any remaining Pre-Last Call Bugs to Tracker | Anyone dissatisfied with a Pre-Last Call bug resolution. | An escalation after January 22, 2011 will be treated as a Last Call comment. |
| January 23, 2011 to February 23, 2011 | Write any remaining Change Proposals | Any HTML Working Group Member | An issue without a Change proposal by February 23, 2011 will be closed without prejudice and marked POSTPONED. It may be reconsidered during Last Call or for a later version of HTML. |
| February 24, 2011 to March 22, 2011 | Write any remaining Counter-Change Proposals | Any HTML Working Group Member | If any issue has only one proposal by March 22, Chairs will call for consensus on that proposal. |
| March 22, 2011 to April 22, 2011 | Resolve all remaining Issues /present Last Call Resolution to Working Group | HTML Chairs | Chairs would publicly acknowledge missing April 22, 2011 deadline and plot a new date. |
| April 22, 2011 to May 22, 2011 | Address Fixable Last Call Objections | HTML Chairs, editors, working group members | Try Last Call resolution again. |
