Subject: OASIS TC Involvement at the May Symposium
XDI TC Members: It seems early but it's time to start planning for a f2f at the OASIS Symposium next May 9-12 -- in San Fransisco this time (New Orleans being a little under the weather.) Since we have scheduled deliverables in that time frame, this could form an excellent milestone for us to work to. Please mark you calendars for these dates. =Drummond -----Original Message----- From: Jane Harnad [mailto:jane.harnad@oasis-open.org] Sent: Wednesday, November 30, 2005 1:59 PM To: chairs@lists.oasis-open.org Cc: 'Carol Geyer'; mary.mcrae@oasis-open.org; 'James Bryce Clark' Subject: [chairs] OASIS TC Involvement at the May Symposium Dear OASIS Technical Committee Chairs: As you know, we have announced our annual spring OASIS Symposium, 9-12 May 2006 in San Francisco, California. As in past years, we're encouraging our Technical Committees to schedule F2F meetings in conjunction with this event. Details on holding a meeting during the event may be found on the web site at: http://www.oasis-open.org/events/symposium_2006/tc_meetings.php. In addition to hosting OASIS TC Meetings, we're planning several special "member-related" events at the Symposium. One such event will be our now annual "OASIS TC Lightning Rounds". To accommodate the growing number of OASIS TCs, this year we'll schedule the TC Lightning Rounds over three sessions. Each day of the Symposium, one hour will be devoted to TC Lightning Rounds. As you know, this is a great opportunity to educate the members on what your TC is accomplishing, find out the status of related work, appeal for input, and identify areas for liaison and development. Each TC should designate one representative to deliver a short presentation on the work of the TC. Presentations will be compiled and posted on the OASIS web site for future reference. Similar to last year, we are hoping for approximately 3-4 slides or 2-3 minutes worth of compact status data and pointers per TC. Standards work is significantly improved by the kind of broad cross-fertilization that the Symposium facilitates. We do hope you consider this great opportunity for we want to emphasize how important co-location and community-building is to our work at OASIS. We had a great turnout last year and are very hopeful that our co-location option will be even more positive this year. As an OASIS TC chair, your help is needed to: 1. discuss the advantages of holding a F2F at the Symposium during your next TC meeting 2. reserve TC meeting space using the online form (http://www.oasis-open.org/events/symposium_2006/tc_meetings.php), as soon as possible, so space can be allocated 3. and designate a representative to deliver an update on your TC's work during our TC Lightning Round Sessions Thank you in advance for your support. We look forward to seeing you all in San Francisco. Regards, Jane Jane Harnad Manager of Events OASIS jane.harnad@oasis-open.org +1978-667-5115 ext 214 Office Hours: Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday
