This is a re-post of the LSC proposal 0.99 with two changes:
- I removed the stipulation under voting about the ad-hoc committee per this thread.
- I changed the dates for voting from one day (July 20) to five days, July 17-22. This covers both weekdays and a weekend, so it should maximize everyones chances of being available to vote.
So, Im reposting it as 0.99a. No revision marks this time, and no separate HTML
page on another server, but fancy new FTX :o)
-Tim
PS - Im milling over the idea of the call for nominations and will get that out
hopefully soon. Plus more info on membership and voting, but that will come a
little later. Not too much, hopefully... --
LDraw.org Standards Committee Proposal
Draft Version 0.99a
Written by: Tim Courtney
Contributors: Kevin Clague, Wayne Gramlich, Paul Gyugyi, Larry Pieniazek,
Orion Pobursky, Dan Boger
July 1, 2003
Preface
This document specifies is a proposal for an LDraw Standards Committee,
presented for discussion and suggestions for improvements from the LDraw
community. Distribution of this memo is unlimited.
Overview
Proposed is a Standards Committee to endorse and shape an Official LDraw.org
file format spec document, consisting of the original LDraw spec (0.2.7)
plus meta-commands developed by various LDraw-compatible LEGO CAD programs.
This groups participants will discuss, vote on, and adopt
community-developed commands as Official LDraw.org standards. The goal of
this body is to foster increased coordination and direction in our common
community effort to develop a better 3D LEGO file format. This proposal is
based on previous industry experience establishing standards bodies.
Background
The LDraw community has existed as a minimally organized group of users,
programmers, and parts authors since James Jessimans LDraw became widely
used in the mid 1990s. This community originated solely online and
continues to use the internet as its primary medium of communication. LDraw
standards have until this point only been semi-organized as well, with
individual leaders in file format issues, but no defined processes for
format evolution. This has caused confusion among both newcomers and long
time participants, and the community recognizes the need for a group charged
with adopting official standards and publishing official documentation.
Detail
Responsibilities of the Standards Committee
The LDraw.org Standards Committee (LSC) will be responsible for maintaining
semi-regular internal discussions on pending file format issues, the overall
progress of the LDraw file format and new or proposed developments made by
different LDraw-based software authors. Initially, this group will be
responsible for developing their own internal procedures on how to process
and vote on proposals and how to write and publish documentation. The
Committee will also be responsible for updating the greater LDraw community
periodically of progress within the group. The Standards Committee will
adopt new official
standards by voting on them, and publish documentation on LDraw.org
following such a decision. The LSC will document past, current and future
LDraw File Formats.
Procedures
The procedures shall be determined by the initial membership of the LSC.
Items that shall be attended to are:
- Call for internal discussion on a proposal made internally (by another LSC
- Request for Final Comments (RFC) from the community before a vote
- Call for a vote to ratify a proposal as standard
- Drafting, reviewing, and publishing spec documents
- Procedure for filling an early vacancy of a member
- Number of votes needed to accept a proposal as a standard
- Appointing sub-committees
Voting
Each LSC member can cast one (1) vote on any issue brought up within the LSC.
Membership
Membership of the LSC shall be limited to 5 people, unless LSC members vote
to create additional vacancies for a future election.
The LSC may also define a procedure for voting to eliminate seats added in
the future. The minimum number of seats on the LSC shall be 5.
Requirements for LSC Membership
To ensure only competent, dedicated, and active contributors are eligible to
become members of the LSC, they shall have met one or more of the following
requirements for nomination:
- Authored at least two LDraw parts subsequently released in an Official
- Served as a reviewer on the Parts Tracker through at least 2 official
- Authored a software program that is compliant with either the LDraw 0.2.7
- Petition for nomination as an LSC candidate approved by 2 current LSC members
- Petition for nomination as an LSC candidate made to the LSC by at least 5
LSC Discussion
The LSC shall have a mailing list or other communication method where only
members can post to, but the entire community can read. This allows the
community to keep tabs on what is being discussed, and discuss LSC issues in
public forums such as LUGNETs CAD.* groups. The LSC should encourage this
discussion, and should draw ideas and suggestions from non-LSC members in
the community, ensuring everyones voice is heard. However, the LSC shall be
the only group that votes to ratify a proposal as a standard.
Annual Summary
The members of the LSC will be responsible for publishing an annual summary
to the community following elections for the next years term. This document
must be published several weeks before elections, on the first of July of
that year. This summary shall outline the progress of the previous term,
note all versions of the spec ratified during the term, and summarize the
future goals and ideas of the current LSC members.
Determining LSC Membership
Members of the first LSC will be nominated and voted upon in the same manner
as in subsequent terms, with the exception that the first election shall be
overseen by the ad-hoc LDraw.org organizing committee and subsequent
elections shall be overseen by the then current LDraw.org governing body.
Initial Charter
The LSC will be chartered under the aegis of the overall LDraw.org.
The ad-hoc committee charged with organizing LDraw.org is responsible for
establishing a system for LDraw.org Membership in order to create a
legitimate group of voters. This membership will be open to anyone who wants
to declare themselves a member, provided they own a valid email address.
Information on this membership system will be posted to LDraw.org and
LUGNET. This membership will have the opportunity to ratify future
referendums on LDraw.org as presented by the ad-hoc committee or such
subsequent governing body as shall be determined or developed. The principle
of one man, one vote shall apply and any person determined to be using
multiple identities to secure multiple votes shall be banned from further
voting or membership. (We talk about membership/voting and organizational
details because they are necessary to carry out the first vote for LSC
members. Additional organizational details will be developed by the
organizing committee and are not properly the subject of this proposal.)
Terms
Terms on the Standards Committee shall last one year.
The ad-hoc LDraw.org committee will issue the first call for nominations to the
Standards Committee on July 1, 2003. Each subsequent call for nominations
will be issued on the first day of July of that year, and shall be issued by
the then current LDraw.org governing body. Nominations must be received and
recorded by the 15th of July. Elections will be held on the 20th of July.
Elections
The LDraw.org Members who are eligible for LSC membership will vote on the
nominees by privately listing the five (5) nominees they select for the
position. Votes will be received and tallied initially by the ad-hoc committee
(and subsequently by a permanent LDraw.org governing body), who will be
accountable to each other and to the community for accuracy. The 1st LSC will
consist of no more than 5 people, however the LSC will be able to create vacant
seats to be filled at a future election if they wish.
Current LDraw.org leadership will announce the results of the election
within 5 days of the election, on or before July 25.
Inauguration
Elected members of the LSC will take office on August 15. This gives
downtime between elections on July 20th for outgoing members and incoming
members to discuss the published Annual Report and ensure a smooth transition.

Since the requirement says we want "active contributors", should this be
clarified to say "5 reviews in each of the last two updates"? I don't think
that I qualify to be on the LSC, just because I reviewed 20 files back in early
2002. Does that make sense?

Does this mean server side software as well, or just end user software?
Also, once we get all the nominations, we should have the ad-hoc committee
publish the complete list of nominees, if they accepted or declined the
nomination, and under what clause do they qualify. That way, people will know
who they can cast their votes for.

Yes, it makes sense. I think given this point it's best to keep it to people who
have reviewed in the last two updates - what does everyone else think?

I'd be inclined to say end user, because they're designing for 'dumb' (or
'dumber') users. I think that understanding how the system is used by everyday
users is important. What do others think?

I'm not sure. While it's important, it should only rarly drive decisions on the
file format. The whole reason you have end user programs is to make dealing
with the dats easier.

I agree with Dan that all usable programs that involve non-trivial (read simple
text editors) manipulation of DAT Code should qualify
