Press Release to Announce OASIS FWSI TC

["Dee Schur" <dee.schur@oasis-open.org>]

OASIS Members:

**Deadline for Sponsor quotes: COB Wednesday 24 Sept**

The Consortium is in the process of drafting a press release to announce
the new OASIS Framework for Web Services Implementation (FWSI) Technical
Committee. We have targeted Monday, 29 September, for distribution.

While OASIS deeply appreciates the contributions of all members to our
technical work, we have a policy to list only Sponsor member companies
in announcements directed to the press. The higher Sponsor member dues
underwrite the cost of promotional activities such as press releases.
All OASIS FWSI TC members--Sponsors, Contributors, and Individuals--will
be listed in OASIS member communications and on the OASIS web site.

The OASIS FWSI TC press release, therefore, will include the following
statement:

"OASIS Framework for Web Services Implementation (FWSI) Technical
Committee members include Sun Microsystems, <INSERT NAMES OF OTHER SPONSOR
MEMBERS WHO JOIN TC
BEFORE 24 SEPTEMBER> and others."

If you represent an OASIS Sponsor organization that isn't listed above,
but you plan to join this TC and would like to be included in the press
release, please notify me.

TC members at the Sponsor level that would like to send a quote on
behalf of their organization in support of this new TC may email that to
me. Please include a name and title at your company to whom the quote
can be attributed.

If your organization is not a Sponsor member, and you would like to be
featured as a major participant in the OASIS FWSI TC press release,
please contact Scott McGrath (scott.mcgrath@oasis-open.org) for
information on upgrading your membership to take advantage of this
promotional benefit.

For details on the new TC and to join, see
http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/members/200309/msg00009.html.

**Our absolute deadline for accepting Sponsor quotes for the press
release is 5:00 pm US EST, Wednesday 24 Sept.**
