Agenda Items:

*	Quick Review of OASIS Board Action on RoP 10 Minutes

1. The text of section 2(c) appears to be repeated in section 2(d). If 
there is a specific reason for repeating this text then it may stay (and 
please let me know what this reason is so that I may inform the Board); 
otherwise section 2(d) should be deleted. A version of the RoP with this 
change made can be considered to be approved by the Board if the SC also 
approves this change.

Recommend - Approval and forward to Karl the replacement file attached.
 <<OASISLegalXMLRoP-20021017.doc>> 
2. Members of the Board have pointed out that the OASIS Bylaws (see 
http://www.oasis-open.org/who/bylaws.shtml), Article 12 Section 3, 
states: "The members of each Member Section shall select the chair of 
such Section and establish the rules of procedure to govern such 
Section, provided, however, that such rules of procedure shall be 
approved in advance by the Board of Directors." Essentially, the OASIS 
Bylaws make no provision for a Steering Committee or for a member 
section chair that is not selected by the members.

(Yes, I understand that your RoP is based on boilerplate provided to you 
by OASIS staff; so this issue is our fault, not yours. It's also an 
issue effecting all OASIS member sections, so you aren't being singled 
out.) The OASIS Board will appoint a subcommittee to look at this issue 
and decide whether the OASIS Bylaws should be revised or if the Board 
will recommend changes to each of the member sections, and requests that 
until this recommendation is formulated in the next couple of months 
that the member section not conduct a steering committee election.
