To build on what Brian said -- if there are warm bodies "shovel
ready", then a subcomittee could make sense. In practice though,
sustaining momentum and buyin has proven challenging, and I think one
way to curb that issue is to give committees a window of time to
operate in, be evaluated, and then continued only if progress is being
made.
So, I could go either way as well, but would be swayed by commitment
and/or dedicated interest in accomplishing specific objectives.

It could be a subcommittee or its own committee, I don't feel
strongly either way, but would suggest that a number of folks who
will be on the technical committee will also be on an interop
committee, so that group is probably in the best position to
recommend how to organize themselves to achieve their collective
goals. From personal experience, trying to get/keep committees
active and productive is harder than we'd like, so limiting the
fragmentation of groups when possible is advantageous since there is
overhead associated with managing groups. But if there is a
passionate and focused group that wants to work explicitly and
exclusively on interop, we should take advantage of that desire and
create the right organizational capability for them to make those
contributions.
Cheers,
Brian

It was Pam's idea:)
So you think it should be a subcommittee of the Technical committee?

Good suggestion John. I'd suggest that once the Technical
Committee is officially organized for 2010 (members and chair(s)),
that group should make a recommendation on whether to also create
an Interop committee. I'd also advocate that the Adoption
Committee decide if they feel we should also have a "Marketing"
committee.
Cheers,

I was talking to Pam about the committee structure.
Should we have a committee on interoperability and testing separate
from the Technical committee?
In the past we have mostly relied on OSIS organizing events, and
scenarios.
As one of the OSIS co-chairs I am not suggesting we stop
participating in joint events, however it may be time to start
organizing some of that work as part of the OIDF.
