SUO: RE: Who should be able to raise issues?
Dear Jon,
It will require at least one formal vote to approve the
Procedures Document in any case.
However, at the moment there is no mechanism for raising
formal issues that have to be recorded and status
managed. At present you can raise anything you like and
it can be ignored (apart from being in the SUO record).
That would still be the case if we retained the restriction
on who can raise formal issues. Indeed I would expect that
formal issues would normally be raised following some
informal discussions.
