2. DSTU Update Review Options
Wiki based Informal comments
This method can use a simplified version of the familiar ballot comment spreadsheet, or informal comments entered directly on the wiki. The wiki format is suggested for Work Groups doing the majority of their work on the HL7 wiki who are familiar with wiki editing. It may also be useful to centralize comment collection on the wiki. Details on the format/location of the wiki access will be determined by each project team.
Peer review process
This method collects comments using a variety of simplified forms, with an individual, or task force, reviewing/applying updates.
Comment Only Ballot [requires 2-week announcements + 30 day period]
Use the Draft for Comment ballot process to gather comments.
