I see this as a don't-miss opportunity for OASIS and Legal XML, therefore there shouldn't be any problems approving this travel plan. RO'B

LegalXML Steering Committee,
I spoke to George with EDRM this morning and confirmed my attendance, pending approval of travel costs by the Steering Committee. I can now estimate the costs of attendance as follows:
Round-trip airfare (SDF->MSP): $956 (I?m not sure why it is so high)
Hotel: 2 nights @ St. Paul hotel: $395
Meals: 2 days @ $71 (estimated based on GSA per diem): $142
TOTAL: $1493
We will consider approval of these costs at the next Steering Committee call on April 18.
Thanks,
Jim Cabral

Dee,
This is great news. I am CCing this to the rest of the Steering Committee and will submit a formal request for funds for travel to St. Paul once we have an estimate on costs. I do not see that as an issue.
As to the best representative from OASIS, I am happy to go if that is the recommendation of the Steering Committee. However, I?m thinking that, as a practicing attorney, Jamie Clark may be a better representative to this particular group. Jamie, are you available?

Hi,
IMHO, it sounds like an invitation to try to really bring this group into the OASIS fold, what do others think?
There are unassigned funds in the LegalXML budget, so funding the travel should not be a problem and if Jim is willing to do so, I think he is best one to go.
Best,
Dee

Dee, Jamie, Jim and Scott, We would welcome attendance by an OASIS representative at the 2012-2013 EDRM kickoff meeting on May 16-17, 2012.
The EDRM XML group would be glad to hear whatever suggestions or proposals OASIS has to offer, as well as to help an OASIS representative get a better understanding of how the group operates.
Details about the meeting are at http://www.edrm.net/archives/ai1ec_event/2012-2013-edrm-kickoff-meeting?instance_id=
We would not charge any attendance fee to the representative, but we are not in a position to cover the representative's travel expenses.
Please let us know what you decide.
Thank you,
George

Dee, Jamie, Jim and Scott,
Thank you for taking the time to talk with me today. We are pleased with your interest in the EDRM XML project and want to make sure that whatever decision we arrive at, the lines of communication stay open.
I have sent a message to our EDRM XML participants, giving them a quick overview of the call and promising to send along the materials from you as soon as I receive them. As we discussed, whether to move the EDRM XML project to OASIS or to keep it with EDRM is not one for me to make but one that rests with our participants.
I look forward to what I hope will be productive discussions.
Thanks again,
George
