-Co-chair roles and responsibilities are less formal in an OMG Working Group than they are in a Special Interest Group or Task Force. There are no formal policies and procedures about the organization of a WG. However, it is our intent that after the first year, the CWG will formally elect its co-chairs. Lisa Schenkewitz (IBM) has volunteered to alternate with Karolyn Schalk and take one of the co-chair seats in the summer of 2019.

-==== 3. Meetings ====
+===== 3. Meetings =====
 The CWG largely operates through work performed "off-line" by its members, such as the writing and editing of discussion papers.
 In addition, status reviews and discussions of the CWG's roadmap will occur during regular OMG meetings. The initial cadence of meetings, agreed at the 25 Sep 2018 kickoff meeting in Ottawa, is:
-  * a face-to-face meeting (half a day or a full day) during the quarterly OMG meeting week;
+  * a face-to-face meeting (half a day or a full day) during the [[http://www.omg.org/events|quarterly OMG meeting week]], typically on Tuesday;
-  * one teleconference per quarter midway between OMG meetings.
+  * teleconferences as required between OMG meetings.
-The next meeting is scheduled for the week of 24-27 March 2019, 9:00 am--12:00 pm, during the OMG meeting in ReSton, VA (near Washington, DC), USA.
+Our next OMG Cloud WG meetings are scheduled for:
+===2022===
+  * Week of Dec. 5-9, Austin, TX, USA
+==2023==
+  * Week of Mar. 20-24, Reston, VA, USA
+  * Week of June 19-23, Orlando, FL, USA
+The agenda of our meetings generally follows this pattern:
+  * Welcome and Introductions
+  * Review of papers completed or started during the previous quarter
+  * Special presentation(s) by one or more Cloud WG members, special guests, or representatives of organizations we have a liaison with
+  * Review of the potential upcoming paper, participant feedback and prioritization, new suggestions, etc.
+  * Discussion of other actions (events, standards efforts, etc.)
+  * Agenda items for the following face-to-face meeting.

+The CSCC created 27 guides or papers during its existence. All of those are now classified as "OMG Discussion Papers," although they are not being re-published with a new title or cover page at this time. The change in name and  branding will occur //as the papers are updated.// With the new papers added by the OMG Cloud Working group since 2019, there are now [[https://www.omg.org/cloud/published-deliverables.htm|29 guides or papers]], listed below.
-The roadmap for the writing of new Discussion Papers or the updating of existing ones will be decided by the group as a whole during its meetings. It will then be presented by one or more of the co-chairs at the quarterly meeting of the OMG's Middleware and Related Services (MARS) Task Force, in order to prepare MARS for review, approval and issuance of the papers.
+The roadmap for the writing of new Discussion Papers or the updating of existing ones will be decided by the group as a whole during its meetings. The workflow for each paper will conclude with:
+  * the preparation of an "external draft" for review by anyone (including non-OMG members) who cares to comment
+  * a four-week review period directed at the members of the appropriate OMG Task Force (for technically-oriented papers, it will be the Middleware and Related Services [MARS] Task Force)
+  * a short presentation of the paper, with a summary of edits made as a result of the review, to the Task Force members
+  * a Task Force vote to issue the papers.
-== 4.1.1. Existing Guides and Papers ==
+In general, the last two steps will take place during an in-person Task Force meeting during an OMG Technical Meeting week. In exceptional cases, this may be replaced by an e-mail vote if the Task Force chairs agree, to avoid delaying the paper.
-^ Title with Link ^ Version ^ Date ^
+=== 4.1.1. Existing Guides and Papers ===
-| | | |
-== 4.1.2. Papers Proposed or in Progress ==
+We generally raise the possibility of updating an existing paper or guide when it is about three years old. Major reason to update a paper may be:
+  * references to obsolete technologies,
+  * important evolution of the market,
+  * new opinions presented by CWG members,
+  * appearance of new standards.
-In Q4 2018, we are working on three papers in parallel:
+In addition, revisions should address the following objectives:
-  - A new **Practical Guide to Cloud Deployment Technologies.** The leader is Karl Scott (Satori Consulting). The kick-off conference call occurred on 24 October 2018 with about 50 participants. Once this paper exists, it may supersede technology considerations in some other papers, which will need to be revised accordingly.
+  * re-branding the paper or guide with the OMG logo, the name of the Cloud Working Group, and the OMG copyright notice,
-  - A new **Practical Guide to Cloud Governance**, initiated by Karolyn Schalk (IBM) and Ash Heda (Wipro). They will propose an abstract and a calendar to develop this.
+  * acknowledging authors (some older papers did not contain an acknowledgement section),
-  - Version 3 of the **Practical Guide to Cloud Service Agreements.** This effort was launched on 31 October 2018, with a kick-off conference call attended by about 40 participants. This effort will be lef by Anil Sharma (IBM) and Paddy Padmanabhan (Damo Consulting), with additional support from Claude Baudoin.
+  * fixing "link rot" and replacing obsolete links with newer ones,
+  * aligning the terminology with the most recent usage (e.g., "CSP" and "CSC" for cloud service providers and customers, respectively),
+  * tightening the language when there are repetitions or unnecessary statements,
+  * fixing any typos or grammar errors.
