Monica,
 
With regard to A: My question for you was whether OASIS has regular meetings for which they're looking for locations. If that was the case, we could have offered the space.
That was just a question. You seem to see no value for OASIS in having one of its meetings at Stanford, so let's just discard this idea without further exploring this option.
 
With regard to B: As mentioned before, we do not have the bandwith to organize (or co-organize) and host a conference. I understand that there would be value in exploring all these issues in a one-day conference, but we cannot do this unfortunately.
 
My proposed alternative was to have an evening panel (no longer than 2 hours) during which we could have addressed some of the current issues. Of course this will not allow us to go in as much depth as a one-day conference would, but it will allow us to start a conversation with different stakeholders in Silicon Valley.
Our evening panels typically attract between 80-200 people.
 
Hope this clarifies it. We can address the question of doing a full one-day conference perhaps in late 2011 or 2012 during your stay here in the summer.
But this is nothing we can commit to at this point and should therefore not be raised with the board of OASIS.
 
Thanks,
Roland

Dear Roland,

tomorrow I have the Steering Committee of OASIS so I try to summarize the proposals:
- A) your proposal: oragnize a technical committe on eCourt File (the only LegalXML workgroup active now) in Stanford enlarged in some part (evening for 2 hours) to the public and with 3-4 invited speakers expert in the domain. Max 20 people hosted in the School of Law premises for free.
It is not clear to me the benefit for OASIS and LegalXML in order to disseminate the results to the community (e.g. industry) due to the minimal critical mass of partecipants and experts to the pannel, and also what is your benefit to host similar initiative if it has not a large enphasis in the community.

- B) my proposal: to have a conference, one day at least, with about 50-100 people for investigating new topics and new perspectives in LegalXML in order to revitalize OASIS activity in a sector that is growing in US as well as in Europe. Also to disseminate the results already achieved by LegalXML. If you can help us simply to find the right location and to be the contact persons in Stanford (endorsement institutional) I can propose to OASIS to take in charge, with CIRSFID, to the logistic, administration and organization issues. Stanford should only provide the room and the contacts with the internal process.

Take in consideration that as ICAIL this conference has costs but also incomes from the fees, so we can pay the room and the reception.

Please let me know before tomorrow which are your thought in order to arrive to the Sterring Committee with a clear proposal to discuss. Also the option A is a good starting point.

Yours,
Monica
