Colleagues,

      
 

      
You are listed as an 
      author of 

      
"WS-Security Profile 
      of the OASIS Security Assertion Markup Language" 

      
draft-sstc-ws-sec-profile-03 available at

      
 

      
http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/security-services/200208/msg00015.html

      
 

      
The SSTC has directed 
      me to submit this draft to the WSSTC. As part of this 

      
process, I am 
      obligated to ask you to affirm your acceptance of the 
      OASIS

      
rules on submissions 
      to a TC. These rules are fully described in Section 3.1 
      of:

      
 

      

      
http://www.oasis-open.org/who/intellectualproperty.shtml

      
 

      
I have reproduced 
      Section 3.1 in the last part of this message.

      
(1) If you feel 
      comfortable with the language in Section 3.1 (Please read point 
      6
carefully), please send a message affirming your acceptance to the 
      SSTC mailing
list together with any other relevant information. You are 
      done!

      
(2) If you are not 
      comfortable with the language, there are several pathways open.
You can 
      withdraw from authorship with the knowledge that you can join the WSS in 
      taking the draft forward (also IPR issues will be have to dealt with 
      "again" by WSS). We can discuss other options as well.

OASIS.IPR.3.1. All Contributions

      
By submission of a contribution, each person actually submitting

      
the contribution is deemed to agree to the following terms and

      
conditions on his own behalf, on behalf of the organization (if

      
any) he represents and on behalf of the owners of any

      
proprietary rights in the contribution. Where a submission

      
identifies contributors in addition to the contributor(s) who

      
provide the actual submission, the actual submitter(s) represent

      
that each other named contributor was made aware of and agreed

      
to accept the same terms and conditions on his own behalf, on

      
behalf of any organization he may represent and any known owner

      
of any proprietary rights in the contribution.

      
 

      
1.Some works (e.g. works of the U.S. Government) are not subject

      
to copyright. However, to the extent that the submission is

      
or may be subject to copyright, the contributor, the

      
organization he represents (if any) and the owners of any

      
proprietary rights in the contribution, grant an unlimited

      
perpetual, non-exclusive, royalty-free, world-wide right and

      
license to OASIS under any copyrights in the contribution.

      
This license includes the right to copy, publish and

      
distribute the contribution in any way, and to prepare

      
derivative works that are based on or incorporate all or part

      
of the contribution, the license to such derivative works to

      
be of the same scope as the license of the original

      
contribution.

      
2.The contributor acknowledges that OASIS has no duty to publish

      
or otherwise use or disseminate any contribution.

      
3.The contributor grants permission to reference the name(s) and

      
address(es) of the contributor(s) and of the organization(s) he

      
represents (if any).

      
4.The contributor represents that contributions properly

      
acknowledge major contributors.

      
5.The contributor, the organization (if any) he represents and the

      
owners of any proprietary rights in the contribution, agree

      
that no information in the contribution is confidential and

      
that OASIS and its affiliated organizations may freely disclose

      
any information in the contribution.

      
6.The contributor represents that he has disclosed the existence

      
of any proprietary or intellectual property rights in the

      
contribution that are reasonably and personally known to the

      
contributor. The contributor does not represent that he

      
personally knows of all potentially pertinent proprietary and

      
intellectual property rights owned or claimed by the

      
organization he represents (if any) or third parties.

      
7.The contributor represents that there are no limits to the

      
contributor's ability to make the grants, acknowledgments and

      
agreements above that are reasonably and personally known to

      
the contributor.

      
8.By ratifying this document, OASIS warrants that it will not

      
inhibit the traditional open and free access to OASIS documents

      
for which license and right have been assigned according to the

      
procedures set forth in this section. This warrant is perpetual

      
and will not be revoked by OASIS or its successors or 
      assigns.
