#From Project Services: [http://gforge.hl7.org/gf/download/trackeritem/1590/7349/ProjectApprovalProcess_v2010_20100610.doc Project Approval Process] review for TSC approval.
#CTO
+
#*Ed had sent feedback which Dave acknowledged.  Ed’s comments mostly process change but not substantive. T3SD feedback already incorporated.
#ArB
+
#*Austin asks whether the TSC is appropriate to ‘approve’ the document which dictates how the Board approves projects. More appropriate to ‘endorse’.
#Affiliates:
+
#*Charlie notes that some of Ed’s comments are not entirely editorial. Ed found them to be more clarification of the process.
#DESD
+
#*Charlie notes the TSC projects might be approved by the TSC without a higher body for approval (EC approval needed). Concern was that EC meetings are once a month. TSC oversight of the Working Group is autonomous.  Woody agrees.
#FTSD
+
#*Dave notes that given Austin’s comment on EC as reviewer/approver, should he address with EC? John asks if the document will change the GOM, in which case the EC will definitely have to review.  John doesn’t think the EC is interested in taking on reviews of TSC decisions. Extent of description of Board, Roadmap Committee, etc projects in document shows there are projects out there that don’t come through the TSC.
#SSD SD
+
#*Charlie notes the process for projects sponsored by the Board or Executive Committees is not owned by the TSC.
#T3SD
+
#*Helen asks about PIC which has both Board appointed and also elected chairs, and under the TSC. The Board has the opportunity to direct PIC to take on work that is not TSC related. That type of project does not come under TSC review, though there are no such projects active at this time. Project approval should be determined by project content.
#Comments:
+
#*Charlie adds that Board of Directors projects should not require EC approval, as the members of the EC sit on the Board.
#WGM:
+
#*EC role in the process may bog down due to their monthly schedule.
#Discussion
+
#*Woody notes that this is not documentation of what is currently happening but represents new policy.  Dave notes that it was intended to be both clarification of what has been happening and what should happen. Woody notes the ‘shall’ language makes it policy rather than recommendation.
#Adjourned hh:mm am/pm (timezone).
+
#*Dave will take the document back and revise it. John notes if it does indeed state policy it will affect GOM and need Board Approval.
-->
+
#*TSC can review and endorse green and yellow sections under our governance; the others have different endorsement/approval.
 +
#*Ed asks if we can split it into different documents, especially to manage revisions.
 +
#Approve [[2010-06-14_TSC_Call_Agenda| 2010-06-14 TSC Call Minutes]]; unanimously approved.
 +
#Review [http://gforge.hl7.org/gf/project/tsc/tracker/?action=TrackerItemBrowse&tracker_id=494 action items] –
 +
#*Helen asks on 1578, WGM Development Project, Helen thought she was to liaise with the WGM Development and Planning committee with Mark McDougall, not to create a separate project.  Can close the issue.
 +
#*Austin received the NCI governance from Charlie at the May WGM, and that issue can be closed.
 +
#*1579 Ken notes he was out sick and has not gotten off the ground.

#*Folks with tasks assigned can offer dates when they’ll get to it.

 +
#*They have met, and now have a wiki off the HL7 wiki main page.  Still thin but will update list of existing agreements with links to the agreements.  They will encourage committees to look at the agreements where they exist.  They will be scanning M&C for organizations the WG ‘think’ they’re working with. External groups who need formal agreements those will be investigated.  Planning a presentation on the Monday night in Cambridge.
 +
#Discussion Topics:
 +
#*TSC Elections: Ken reports we have at least one nominee for each SD.  The last candidate should have their name submitted before Monday because their organization has authorized them to continue to serve.
 +
#*:One SD still waiting to confirm they have a nominee.  Confident there will be at least one nominee for each SD by week’s end.  He will be looking into affiliate nominees as well.  Nominees’ identities are not divulged until the ballot opens.  If you’re not sure if someone’s been nominated just nominate them; duplicate nominations are ok.

  16. Organizational Relations Committee update (semiweekly) - Helen Stevens
    • They have met, and now have a wiki off the HL7 wiki main page. Still thin but will update list of existing agreements with links to the agreements. They will encourage committees to look at the agreements where they exist. They will be scanning M&C for organizations the WG ‘think’ they’re working with. External groups who need formal agreements those will be investigated. Planning a presentation on the Monday night in Cambridge.
  17. Discussion Topics:
    • TSC Elections: Ken reports we have at least one nominee for each SD. The last candidate should have their name submitted before Monday because their organization has authorized them to continue to serve.
      One SD still waiting to confirm they have a nominee. Confident there will be at least one nominee for each SD by week’s end. He will be looking into affiliate nominees as well. Nominees’ identities are not divulged until the ballot opens. If you’re not sure if someone’s been nominated just nominate them; duplicate nominations are ok.
