Subject: RE: [oasis-board-comment] RE: [board-agenda] Conflict of Interest Policy Final Draft
This got bounced back. Trying again. From: Lipton, Paul C We can do that. From: von Riegen, Claus <claus.von.riegen@sap.com> I do agree with Eduardo on point a). If we do mean US federal and state law (which I believe is the correct intention), then we should actually state that in order to avoid misinterpretation. Regards, Claus Claus von Riegen From: Eduardo Gutentag [mailto:eduardo.gutentag@oracle.com] Without intending to get into a point-by-point discussion of what was and was not discussed and accepted or rejected, I'd like to mention just a couple of things: The issue of disambiguating ‘chair’ from ‘chairperson of the meeting’ was also taken on – and we accepted your suggestion Cheers, Peter From: Lipton, Paul C [mailto:Paul.Lipton@ca.com] Eduardo, We are certainly grateful for your active interest. Each of your comments was carefully discussed. I can’t remember all the items (I’m sitting in a hotel room with limited time), but I do remember that your concern about exclusive reference to the US (only US state & federal law are discussed in the CoI) was certainly considered. The conclusion was that the approach in this case were both deliberate & correct. Consider that even if a director is a non-US citizen, the liabilities and risks mitigated by this policy come up precisely and exclusively under US law, because (unlike W3C or IETF) we are a nonprofit corporation organized under US law. That was the thinking. In short, even if the conclusions were not always what you would have liked, your suggestions were not given short shrift. Thanks again for your input.

From: Eduardo Gutentag [mailto:eduardo.gutentag@oracle.com] I am disappointed to see that all of my comments, with the exception of a small grammatical suggestion regarding line 1, have been ignored. Hello, As you remember, an earlier draft of the Conflict of Interest Policy was submitted in advance of the February Board meeting to allow time for comment. After careful consideration of all comments received, the attached documents (clean and redline) have been approved by the Board's Governance Committee at its meeting of 03 March 2011. The Committee asks that this be included as an "A" item for decision, at the Board's meeting of 17 March 2011.
