All members are encouraged to consider becoming or nominating a candidate.

TAB members identify opportunities and areas for standardization and advise the OASIS Board on the Consortium's technical agenda and on interoperability and alignment issues. Members of both Boards serve two-year terms. Balloting will take place 1-25 June. http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/members/200604/msg00007.html ---------------------------------------------------------------------- OASIS Extends Hotel Reservation Deadline for Symposium The deadline for Symposium attendees to receive the 199 USD discounted rate on guest rooms at the Grand Hyatt has been extended to 21 April.
