RE: [xliff] Microsoft resigning from both OASIS XLIFF and WS-Trans TCs

Hi Gerard,

 

I am sorry to hear this. I really appreciated working with you. It was also good to meet you and your wife in Dublin a few years ago.

 

In James' mail he pointed out that the new IP policy has not been finalised or approved. I think it would be useful if you make Microsoft's and your view known to the board before they do this.

 

Good luck in teh future,

 

Peter.

Subject: [xliff] Microsoft resigning from both OASIS XLIFF and WS-Trans TCs

Dear friends,

Microsoft Corporation decided to review its committee involvement in light of the new OASIS IP. I was asked to remain low key while the review took place, and now that it is done, Microsoft chose to terminate participations in both. As a result, I reluctantly submit my resignation from both TCs.

 

I wish to all of you the best of luck in growing these specs!
