Description

Note: this ballot is not a vote to approve the specification, this ballot is merely to request a vote. Please vote Yes if you agree with all of the following. If you disagree, please vote No. If you don't have an opinion, please vote Abstain. I move that: 1. The TC accepts the following editorial changes to the specification, included in the TC github repository and suggested by Paul Knight: 6f1e1b1 editorial: update S390 Common I/O link 9c5d7ce editorial: use bold for title and headings e521c5b changelog editorial fixes 9ac6254 ipr: IPR page in github repository is sufficient 6dd574a diff-with-base: drop diff from wd01 5fd6a7d fixup! REVISION: update for csd02 da59182 makediff: switch to latexdiff-fast a7a2813 editorial: update copyright in PDF footer to 2022 a065419 REVISION: update for csd02 9225a97 makehtml: don't force logo size 47ec202 html: update colors ef05f01 images: update logo 252da89 ipr/title: editorial changes by Paul Knight The TC agrees that the above changes are all non-material. The TC agrees to include the above change(s) in virtio-v1.2-cs01 and future versions of the specification. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 2. The TC agrees to defer addressing the following comments, received during the public review period, to version 1.3 or later of the specification: One comment asked for a clarification however the issue has not been fully clarified. As the affected text was not changed in 1.2 it seems safe to defer the resolution until the issue is clearer. https://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/virtio-dev/202206/msg00001.html Clarification of VIRTIO_F_EVENT_IDX driver conditions.

The TC approves requesting a special majority vote for advancement of the draft csd01 with above aditorial changes as a Committee Specification. Location of the working draft: https://github.com/oasis-tcs/virtio-docs/blob/master/virtio-v1.2-cs01.zip This archive includes the editable Tex sources, specification in PDF and HTML formats, as well as versions with changes since virtio-v1.1-cs01 highlighted. You can also use the "revision history" chapter to locate the changes more easily. -------------------------------------- Reminder: A Voting Member must be active in a TC to maintain voting rights. As the Virtio TC has adopted a standing rule to conduct business only by electronic ballot, without Meetings, a Voting Member who fails to cast a ballot in two consecutive Work Product Ballots loses his or her voting rights at the close of the second ballot missed. --------------------------------------
