The agenda for the first meeting is a standard one set by Oasis as listed below.

1. Welcome by chair
2. Roll call by chair or secretary to match the names of pre-registered people against the meeting attendees in order to determine TC membership. To become a member at the first meeting, the person must 1) be eligible, i.e. be an employee of an OASIS member organization or an Individual member of OASIS; 2) have notified the chair of the person's intent to participate 15 days before the first meeting; and 3) attended the first meeting.
3. Review of OASIS TC process and IPR policy; OASIS staff can help with this.  - Karl Best will attend the meeting
4. Review of TC charter (statement of purpose, goals, deliverables, schedule, etc.). Discussion whether there is any need to clarify the charter, and discussion of how to accomplish the goals set forth in the charter. By joining the TC a person accepts the charter and chair as proposed, so no ratification is required, but any issues or comments related to the charter (and choice of chair) should be addressed. The TC may clarify the charter at any time by majority vote.
5. Vote on any standing rules for the TC, such as whether to allow voting via email.
6. Selection/volunteers for the following positions. Most of these are the chair's responsibilities but can be delegated. These positions could be filled by election, or by volunteers that are then ratified or accepted by the TC membership.
7. vice-chair (if necessary)
8. editor
9. secretary
10. webmaster
11. liaisons with other applicable standards groups or OASIS TCs
12. Split into subcommittees if necessary (each will need its own charter, chair and editor, liaisons with other subcommittees, etc.).
13. Discussion and acceptance of contributed work.
14. Set meeting schedule; ask for volunteers for hosting meetings.
