     leadership and service to this committee as chair and co-chair.

     Motion of appreciation expressed to Zarella Rendon for her service
     as the Secretary.

        officers


UBL 2.1 Status

   - the committee voted in a Special Majority Vote to approve submit
     UBL v2.1 OASIS Standard to ISO/IET JTC 1 via the PAS (Publicly
     Available Specification) Transposition Process and submitting
     the request to the OASIS Board President:
