Members of the Energy Interoperation TC,
Could I ask for a response to the second concern that Martin has expressed. I think Peter has answered the first question just fine but I do think the non-normative/normative question needs to be addressed.
Thanks very much for your attention,

Martin, Chet
I think that there are two distinct issues here:
- There is no longer any artifact entitled ‘SOA-RA’ – this draft name was dropped a couple of years ago in favour of ‘SOA-RAF’ as the work evolved. Removing
references to ‘RA’ is therefore the right thing to do in this deliverable;
- Shifting reference to the newly designated ‘SOA-RAF’ to being a normative rather than non-normative reference.
I think that the change in the title of the target referenced is non-material, as it is simply a reflection of the reality – that SOA-RA morphed to SOA-RAF.
On the separate issue as to whether changing such reference from the non-normative to the normative references section, I have no opinion.
Cheers,
Peter

Chet,
I am always a bit concerned when normative references get tinkered with. So I checked through the document to see if the changes were indeed non-material.
I am satisfied with all of the changes except the two related to SOA-RA/F.
SOA-RAF has been added as a new normative reference, yet it is not referred to in the body of the document at all. This in itself while bad practice would not necessarily
constitute a material change. However, there was a non-normative reference to [SOA-RA] , which is quoted throughout the document, but this has been deleted. If the intention was to replace the non-normative [SOA-RA] reference with a normative reference to
[SOA-RAF] then this would be a Material change IMHO. In any case, there are now two inconsistencies that should be fixed prior to OS. The non-normative reference to [SOA-RA] needs to be reinstated and [SOA-RAF] deleted - this will be non-material, or the [SOA-RA]
reference should be changed to [SOA-RAF] which would be material since this is a new normative reference.
I hope the TC will do the right thing!
Regards,
Martin.

OASIS members,
The OASIS Energy Interoperation TC members [1] have requested a Special Majority Vote to approve continuing with the submission of Energy Interoperation Version 1.0 with Non-Material Changes to an OASIS Standard vote.
The TC received comments during the public review of the Candidate OASIS Standard (COS). Changes have been made to the COS to address the comments received. The description of the changes can be inspected in the file
named energyinterop-1-0-spec-wd41-with-changes-cos01.pdf in the complete ZIP archive of the Work Product at
https://www.oasis-open.org/committees/document.php?document_id=53025&wg_abbrev=energyinterop.
The TC judges these changes to be Non-Material in accordance with the definition in the OASIS TC Process (http://www.oasis-open.org/policies-guidelines/tc-process#dNonmaterialChange).
The TC requested this ballot in accordance with the procedures for handling comments specified in section 3.4.2 Public Review of a Candidate OASIS Standard of the OASIS TC Process (https://www.oasis-open.org/policies-guidelines/tc-process#OASISstandard).
