TSC Documents

TSC Process Documents

• Project Approval Process
• Dissolution of work group, from GOM
• Establishing a Work Group, from GOM
• DSTU Approval Process, from GOM
  • Requesting extensions to DSTU should use criteria determined in the TSC’s conference call 2009-03-09, stating:

Sufficient justification should be provided to describe effort in progress to move the standard towards a normative ballot, such as evidence of current trial activity, if they have a credible expectation that a normative document will be produced within a requested timeframe, given that trials are currently underway. The request must include the length of time required to extend the DSTU, including conclusion of the pilot and subsequent balloting activity...If you send the completed form to me (LynnL) I can put it on the TSC agenda.

• Process to Change Work Group Name

• Guidelines for Constructing Ballot Document Titles
• Process for formalising joint SDO work: see HL7's Collaboration with ISO and JIC from the HL7.org web page, under Participate/Balloting
• Out-of-Cycle ballot criteria
• Request template to withdraw proposed ANS - when a work group has balloted a standard at DSTU, informative, or normative ballot, and decides the standard will be withdrawn, the withdrawal form is needed for ANSI notification.
