</span>How does this follow?<br>
<br>
Section 4.1: "Prior to the approval of a CAB Forum Draft Guideline as a<br>
CAB Forum Final Guideline or Final Maintenance Guideline..."<br>
<br>
A Draft Guideline may become either a FG or an FMG. How do you decide<br>
which it becomes?<br>
<br>
8.3 f): "'Final Maintenance Guideline' is an errata to or amendment of<br>
<span class="">an existing CAB Forum Final Guideline."<br>
<br>
</span>So if it's an edit to an existing document, the DG is aiming to be an<br>
FMG, otherwise it's aiming to be an FG.<br>
<br>
Back to 4.1: "The approval of a CAB Forum Final Maintenance Guideline<br>
shall follow the same process except that the Review Period shall be<br>
thirty (30) days."<br>
<br>
If the end result will be an FMG (i.e. an edit) then the review period<br>
is 30 days. Otherwise it's 60.<br>
<br>
Why do you say that all Draft Guidelines need 60-day reviews?<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>I'm highlighting the wording issue; that is, the text can be read to either suggest DG -> (FG || FMG) (which is the interpretation you've described here) *or* DG -> FG -> FMG (using 8.3). The transition of DG -> FG invokes the 60 day review period. </div></div><br></div></div>
