Love, love, love what you've done with the website! It's 1000x better than it was!
Have you considered having a distinct logo designed for LegalXML? Dee has a relationship with a low-cost designer who did a great logo for our new RECITE project. We could look into that if the StC would like. Of course, if you prefer to continue using the OASIS logo, that's fine too. Most new projects are looking to establish more of their own identity.
Minor take-em-or-leave-em suggestions: On the About page, consider removing the term "Member Section". It's a label that people may not need to focus on right away. Instead of " The LegalXML Member Section focuses the ", just say " LegalXML focuses the... "
"LegalXML is a member section within OASIS the not-for-profit," could just be "LegalXML is part of the OASIS not-for-profit..."
Under Governance, "The OASIS LegalXML Member Section Steering Committee coordinates" could just be "The LegalXML Steering Committee coordinates...". The link to the Member Section policy in that sentence gets the point across.
On the "Specifications" page, we like to say "Completed Committees" rather than "Closed" .
On the "Get Involved" page,
"If you are not already employed by an OASIS member organization You may join the LegalXML Member Section by joining OASIS and the OASIS Membership Agreement. " change to
"...you may join LegalXML by submitting the OASIS Membership Agreement."
In the second paragraph, since a person may not know who their Primary Rep is, maybe change to: "If you are already employed by an OASIS member organization, your employer may be recognized as a LegalXML Supporting Entity. Contact Member Services for details." You may choose to end the paragraph there. OASIS staff can work with the person 1:1 on the details of becoming a Supporting Entity or Observer and what's needed.
"If your organization is already an OASIS LegalXML Supporting Entity..." may confuse people.
It seems like we're really trying to say, "If you already have an OASIS member login, you may join the LegalXML Member Section and any active LegalXML technical committees that interest you, either as a Member or Observer."
Again, congratulations on everything you've done. It's fantastic! Carol
