[sv-champions] Ballot review process

Hi, Champions,

	As Champions, a significant role has been given to you in the balloting review process.  The P1800 WG recommends some face-to-face meetings in the schedule below.  I'd like to hear everyone's opinions as to how long a meeting we think we'll need to start the process of reviewing balloting feedback.  Note that I've already seen some significant commentary that is being forwarded to the registered voters.

Note that I have yet to receive any official feedback.  Would we like to plan to meet in case some comes in before the end of the balloting?

The schedule:

February 22:	The balloting process opens.  As feedback is filed with the IEEE, it will be forwarded 
	to Johny, and he is likely to forward it on to me and the Champions for preliminary processing 
	into buckets (see March 28 below).

March 24:	The ballot closes.

March 28:	P1800 will receive the accumulated feedback filed with the balloting.
	This feedback will be given to the Champions to sort into several buckets:

	1)  Issues that may require substantive changes to the LRM are forwarded to the SV-* committees
	2)  Issues that are editorial changes will be forwarded to Stu
	3)  Issues that are "not a bug" are commented on appropriately and passed back to the P1800	

	The P1800 recommends that the champions have a face-to-face all day meeting to complete 
	this process.

March 31:  The Champions are complete with their initial classification and assignment of issues to 
	committees.

	The P1800 recommends that the SV-* committees plan an all day face-to-face to deal with the 
	issues raised.  Possible resolutions are:

	1)  Changes are made to the LRM to address the issue
	2)  Addressing the issue is determined to decrease consensus in the committee is so noted on 
		the issues spreadsheet.
	3)  Other determination of the issue is made and is also so noted in the issues spreadsheet
		Note:  Saying that an issue will be delayed to a future release is not an allowed response.

April 12:  The committees are complete with their LRM updates and issue spreadsheet updates.  

	The Champions will meet, do their review of LRM changes looking for inconsistency, etc.
	This is likely to be a phone meeting.

April 15:  The Champions have completed their analysis and the data is forwarded to the P1800.

April 19:  The P1800 has a WG meeting in Austin to approve the changes and responses.

May 3:  The updated draft is ready for editorial review of the changes

May 9:  The re-ballot draft is complete

May 10:  Voting on the re-ballot draft starts.

I'd appreciate your insights into how best accomplish the Champions piece to this process.
