Description
OData Version 4.0 [1] was approved as a Committee Specification on 17 November 2013. The TC has received 3 Statements of Use from IBM, Microsoft and SAP [2]. Approving this ballot will result in a 60-day public review after which, if no comments are received, the COS will be submitted to a membership-wide ballot. If comments are received, the TC will be asked to vote by Special Majority Ballot on whether to continue to the membership vote. This is explained in TC Process section 3.4.2, Public Review of a Candidate OASIS Standard [3]. This ballot requires a Special Majority Vote [4]. The TC roster currently lists 18 voting members. In order to pass, at least 12 members have to vote Yes and no more than 4 members may vote No. [1] URI to the Committee Specification: http://docs.oasis-open.org/odata/odata/v4.0/cs02/odata-v4.0-cs02.zip [2] Links to Statements of Use IBM: https://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/odata/201310/msg00253.html Microsoft: https://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/odata/201310/msg00261.html SAP: https://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/odata/201311/msg00002.html [3] http://www.oasis-open.org/policies-guidelines/tc-process#OASISstandard [4] Special Majority Vote: http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/process-2010-07-28.php#dSpecialMajority
