[pubrel] Possible Press Release to Announce WSDM as OASIS Standard

["Carol Geyer" <carol.geyer@oasis-open.org>]

--PLEASE NOTE QUOTE DEADLINE IS NOON EST, MONDAY, 7 MARCH--

OASIS Members:

In the event Web Services Distributed Management (WSDM) is approved as an OASIS Standard, the Consortium would like to be prepared
to issue a press release. We have targeted Tuesday, 8 Feb, for distribution.

While OASIS deeply appreciates the contributions of all members to our technical work, only Sponsor members elect to receive
promotional benefits, such as inclusion in announcements directed to the press. 

The WSDM OASIS Standard press release, therefore, will feature the following statement:

"WSDM was developed by members of the OASIS WSDM Technical Committee, which includes representatives of Actional, BEA Systems, BMC
Software, Computer Associates, Dell, Fujitsu, Hewlett-Packard, Hitachi, IBM, Novell, Oracle, Tibco, and others."

If your organization's name is listed above and you would prefer *not* to be mentioned in the press release, please let me know.

*Any* Sponsor member of OASIS may submit a quote in support of WSDM's approval as an OASIS Standard--you do not have to be a member
of the OASIS WSDM TC. If you represent a Sponsor member of OASIS, and you would like to send a quote, please email that to me,
including a name and title at your company to whom the quote can be attributed.

If your organization is not a Sponsor member of OASIS, and you would like to submit a quote for this press release, please contact
Scott McGrath (scott.mcgrath@oasis-open.org) immediately for information on upgrading your membership to take advantage of this
promotional benefit.

For details on WSDM see:

**Our absolute deadline for accepting Sponsor quotes for the press release is noon ET Monday, 7 March.**

Regards,
Carol
