Agenda
Item 1. Vote on the following proposed wording for the OASIS LegalXML RoP. -
15 Minutes

1.     Governance
		a.	The LegalXML Member Section Steering Committee will
be formed from existing OASIS members who have indicated their intent to
participate significantly in LegalXML Member Section activities. Initially,
the LegalXML Member Section Steering Committee will be comprised of members
from the current LegalXML, Inc. Board of Directors. All LegalXML Steering
Committee members must be current OASIS members.
		b.  As anticipated by OASIS LegalXML, once the Steering
Committee was established at OASIS the member section Rules of Procedure,
with OASIS Board of Directors approval have been modified and put in place.
Beginning ninety days after the first official meeting of the fourth Legal
XML Member Section Technical Committee, the steering committee shall be
constituted as follows:
				a.	Each OASIS LegalXML Member Section
Technical Committee shall elect a member of the Technical Committee to the
OASIS LegalXML Member Section Steering Committee.  
				b.	Three additional "at large" steering
committee members shall be elected from the OASIS LegalXML Member Section
membership (those who have requested OASIS LegalXML Member Section
membership upon joining or renewing their OASIS membership) on an annual
basis. "At large" members shall serve one-year terms, and shall be eligible
for election to no more than three successive terms.
		c.	The LegalXML Member Section will operate under the
OASIS Bylaws and Technical Committee Process. 

2.	Technical Process, Management, Reporting
		a.	OASIS Technical Committees, including those
associated with the LegalXML Member Section, will be formed and will operate
according to the OASIS Technical Committee Process. "LegalXML" Technical
Committees will be referred to as such only because of their topic and
association with the LegalXML member section, but are actually OASIS
Technical Committees.
		b.	Technical work submitted to OASIS Technical
Committees will be in accordance with the OASIS Intellectual Property Rights
(IPR) policy as a base. 
		c.	Further, all OASIS LegalXML Technical Committees
shall have this additional principle incorporated in their charters before
charter approval and worded as follows. 	"In no event shall this
Technical Committee finalize or approve any technical specification if it
believes that the use, distribution, or implementation of such specification
would necessarily require the unauthorized infringement of any third party
rights known to the technical committee, and such third party has not agreed
to provide necessary license rights on perpetual, royalty-free,
non-discriminatory terms." 
		d.	Technical work products created and approved by
LegalXML Member Section Technical Committees will be referred to as
"LegalXML Technical Committee Specifications". Only work products approved
by a vote of the OASIS general membership will be referred to as "OASIS
Standards."
