Subject: OASIS / XML.org IP issues
I'm pleased to announce that Harold Anderson will be representing IBM in the OASIS / XML.org intellectual property discussions. We've talked about this for some time and now need to take action to put it on paper/the web. Along with the policies affecting what we put in the repository and what we link to, we have to make clear the patent policy for work done in our working groups. I think we can also agree to an open source policy at this time to complete the package. Since we've had such a healthy lead time on this, I want to propose an aggressive schedule for us to get this finalized. Namely, I would like to see us reach final agreement by November 12 and have board approval. This should be all set before the ebXML meeting starting on November 17. Harold is committed to other efforts this week, but he will be starting in on this next Monday. Please line up your internal resources to get the appropriate people prepped and aware of this effort so we can reach closure quickly.
