Subject: [security-services] TC guidelines: submitted work


http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/guidelines.shtml#submitted_work


Submitted work

Many TCs start with work submitted by one or more of its members.
Submitted work is governed by the OASIS IPR, which states that 

     The submitting organization or people grant OASIS a license to
     publish the submitted work and make it publicly available  The
     submitted work may be made publicly available and no
     information is confidential; and  All copyrights or other
     legal encumbrances have been disclosed to OASIS  The work of
     an OASIS TC will carry the OASIS copyright statement. 

Persons or organizations wishing to submit work to an OASIS TC
should be familiar with the OASIS IPR policy, and should have their
corporate counsel review the policy to prevent any
misunderstanding. 

The philosophy of the OASIS IPR Policy in regards to submissions is
openness and full disclosure. TC members must have full knowledge
of any IP encumbrances before they can make an informed decision
whether to accept the submission and do further work on it.
Likewise, when the completed specification is submitted to the
OASIS membership for their consideration of the specification as an
OASIS Standard those members need to be able to make an informed
decision whether they want to have an OASIS Standard with those
encumbrances.

Once an individual or organization offers to submit technical work
to the TC, the TC members should evaluate the work and decide if
this is something that they want to work on. The submission should
be accepted by vote, and that decision should be minuted and posted
just as any other TC decision.
