It's a stable document, representing the consensus of the committee.
To move it along to an OASIS standard, three OASIS members have to

vote no.


John,

For my education, what is the W3C voting procedure?

From what you write above a technology / specification could be "approved" by OASIS with 89.9% apathy. Isn't that correct? I guess I mean, Is that accurate? Whether it is right or not is a separate issue.

Could the same happen at W3C?
