[Proposal] Affiliation of regrep TC with new egov Member Section

["Farrukh S. Najmi" <farrukh@wellfleetsoftware.com>]

The following excerpt from attached rules regarding new egov Member
Section is significant to our TC:

" OASIS Technical Committees may seek to affiliate with the Member
Section as provided in the OASIS Member Section Policy."

Given that government is the most prominent sector for adoption of
regrep TC specifications, I propose that we seek to affiliate with the
new egov member section. Kathryn, could we please add this as a
discussion item for our next TC meeting? Thanks for your consideration
of this proposal.

   Attached for review and further discussion by our interested 
member stakeholders is a first draft of the 'rules of procedure' 
(charter document) for a possible OASIS e-Government member section. 
  Sections operate under our member section policy rules [1], and 
can serve as a potential interest group and focal point for 
discussions about current and future standardization needs & 
implementation.
   Your feedback is most welcome.  This is the draft noted in the 
prior messages to this list regarding our upcoming discussion in San 
Diego (see below) regarding future e-Government activity.

   Regards, JBC
