I just checked with Robert Anderson, he recommended the Apache license for compatibility with the DITA Open Toolkit.

I'm working on setting up the GitHub OASIS Open repository for Lightweight DITA. I need to submit a proposal template to OASIS for this, but I need some questions answered. The OASIS overview of these repositories is here if you want more info:

https://www.oasis-open.org/resources/open-repositories/

The items below are needed for the proposal. I have made some suggestions. I need your feedback and we need to decide.

------------------------------------------------------------
Purpose Statement

My suggestion:
"The Lightweight DITA OASIS Open repository will contain schema files, tools and documents related to developing a specification for a light version of DITA. These files will be set up to be as useful as possible for people who want to use them and contribute to them."

Initial Maintainers

Mark Giffin
Who else? Michael Priestley, Carlos Evia, ...?

Open Source License

I have no opinions on this. The default is BSD-3-Clause License if the committee doesn't choose something else. The licenses you can choose from are here:

https://www.oasis-open.org/resources/open-repositories/licenses

GitHub Name

This is the name for the repo. It has certain OASIS requirements. I propose "dita-lightweight". The URL to the repo would be this:
https://github.com/oasis-open/dita-lightweight

Short Description

My suggestion (must be less than 300 characters):
"OASIS Open Repository:  Schema files, tools and documentation related to the Lightweight DITA Subcommittee."

Initial Repository Content

The initial content will be the DTDs and other files that are now stored in the following OASIS Subversion repository:
