Re: [jakarta.ee-spec.committee] Topics for today

I would probably help if tried communicating in English :-/

I was trying to express that the subset of the members on the Specification Committee is different from the subset of members that Participate in any particular project. Getting approval from the members on the Specification Committee is not the same (and is certainly not a superset) as getting approval from the members who participate in a particular project.

At one point, I had envisioned that all members were represented on the Specification Committee. This notion is, in retrospect, silly.

Note that approvals are already covered in the document: e.g. the Specification Committee must approve new project proposals, scope changes, release plans, and reviews by super majority. 

We noted that all Member Companies are not represented on the Specification Committee, so representation on the committee does not meet the requirements of the stated rationale for requiring a Participant vote.

Sorry, I don't understand that.
