Election of user co-chair

• Problem 1: User co-chair should have been voted in November 2011 (which has already passed). To make an election now would require a “call for candidates” period for at least 4 weeks AND a “voting period” for again 4 weeks which would result in a new co-chair in February 2012 soonest.
• Problem 2: Co-chair election should generally be moved to August, because it makes sense to let the new co-chair start by a new season (and not in the middle)

2 variants to resolve that:

1. Either elect “as soon as possible” to hold by Jacqueline’s 2-year duty, but thereby shorten the period of the next user co-chair for letting it end in August 2013
2. Move the election to August 2012, thereby extending the period of both the current co-chairs, but being on the right schedule for all future co-chairs

• There are no policies applied on us how to resolve this, although IHE has a “usual” IHE election-proceeding. Domains like ours, which have gone through a heavy and intensive startup-phase are allowed to make their own decisions how to transit to the “usual” IHE procedure.
• Decision: This matter will be decided by Doodle, because there are no clear arguments for either the one or the other solution. The approach, which gets the most votings will be taken.

3. Decision: Jose/Marc will divide this proposal to figure out, what could be turned into CPs or what requires some extra work

For all incoming proposals

All proposal editors shall take care that they choose the right template for their proposals:

• Change proposal: Take this, if the request will most likely lead to a change in a current profile
• New work item: Take this, if your proposal will most likely lead to a new profile (e.g. if you want to cover a new use-case)
• If you are not sure where your request will lead to, also choose the new work item template

All proposal editors shall take care that in IHE everything is strictly “use-case” driven

• Therefore always include a detailed use-case description in the proposal (unless it’s a CP which deals with obvious things like typos, errors, etc.)
