John,

On the OASIS Board call Friday (17th), some of the Board Directors requested further modifications in the staff proposal around the Associate Membership level.

- There will be only a single annual fee of $250.

- Only one employee can participate (not two).

- It is an Organizational member (someone signs the Membership Agreement obligating their organization)

- It is a non-voting class of organizational membership (the single participant can vote on TC ballots, but the organization does not get to vote on Board elections or OASIS Standards)

- Some Board Directors want to limit the number of TCs the single participant can sign up for to either 3 overall or any within a single Member Section.

Please let me know if there are any issues from the LegalXML MS SC on the Associate Membership proposal. We tried to design this so that none of the current members of your TCs would be unable to continue as the revised IPR Policy and Membership Agreement get rolled out.

John Messing, Debi Miller-Moore and I participated in the conference call, which served to bring Debi up to speed on the meeting’s results.

Jamie was held up by a security lockdown in LAX for three and a half hours. He and I got together in Las Vegas before both of us had to fly out. He updated me on several matters of concern to the Member Section:

OASIS will approve a new membership/dues structure that will allow nonprofits to join for one member for $250, two members for $500. Individual members will have to convert their memberships into organizational memberships under this new structure. I told Jamie I thought this would meet our needs.

We did not discuss our request to have our TCs put automatically into the correct IP status, without the need for each of our TCs to vote to continue to do what we are already doing.

Charter changes do not require OASIS Board approval. They do need to be approved by the TC Administrator. Jamie will continue to pursue our desire that tasks and deadlines not appear in the charter but in another visible place on the webpage.

Jamie acknowledged problems with the document part of KAVI. He will call Robin early next week to go over with her the work arounds he has devised to make the current product serviceable.

Jamie – What have I missed?
