Thanks for starting this debate: a useful corollary to the
decision to go GitHub. I propose that “CD Editor” becomes
plural, and we start having a team.</blockquote>
I second that, that would get us around the
"single-point-of-failure/delay" problem. <br>

I would suggest a new "team" of CD Editors at the GithHub level,
and have three editors and James as Editor-in-chief. a<br>

I think the GitHub log should be sufficient, if people give good
commit messages. <br>

<p>Dear all, <br>
</p>
<p>as you know, we have been reorganizing the OpenMath
resources and web site as multiple repositories at [1] <br>
</p>
<p>In particular we have the new CDs repository [2], which
has the CD resources and feeds the CD web site [3]<br>
</p>
<p>The idea is that [2] should facilitate CD development
by providing public source access, issues, pull
requests, and notifications. Now, the first outside user
(Jacob Beal) has taken advantage of this first by
raising an issue [4], and then providing a pull request
[5] which is currently being discussed. In a nutshell
the proposal is to add negated binary connectives nor,
nand, and nxor to logic1.ocd.<br>
</p>
<p>So far so good, but this raises the question of how the
CD approval process should be organized (technically). <br>
</p>
<p>The OpenMath Standard [6] only says<br>
</p>
<div>
<h3 id="cdapprove">> 4.5 Content Dictionaries
Reviewing Process</h3>
<p>> The <i>OpenMath</i> Society is responsible for
implementing a review and referee <br>
> process to assess the accuracy of the
mathematical content of Content Dictionaries. <br>
> The status (see <small><code>CDStatus</code></small>)
and/or the version number (see <small><code>CDVersion</code></small>
) of a Content |<br>
> Dictionary may change as a result of this review
process. </p>
</div>
<p>which leaves the process open and the OpenMath Society
delegates the responsibility to its CD Editor (James
Davenport). <br>
</p>
<p>James and I have started discussing the technical
process of approving CD revisions. We propose that we
make the GitHub-supported process we have started with
Jacob's proposal the standard and document it in the
README of [2]. <br>
</p>
<p>Here is what we think the process should be. <br>
</p>
<ol>
<li>An extension proposal is made via a GitHub issue at
[2] and discussed there. <br>
</li>
<li>The discussion is concretized into a pull request
(PR) to [2] that is discussed further on the PR
(including inline comments) until all issues are
resolved. <br>
</li>
<li>James explicitly approves the PR and someone with
push rights merges it. <br>
</li>
<li>the changes are announced and added to a changelog.
<br>
</li>
</ol>
<p>We would like your input on this proposal (in
particular what we should do for 4.)</p>
<p>James & Michael <br>
