Subject:	[chairs] reminder to chairs: OASIS IPR Policy member review

TC chairs:

On 9 July OASIS announced to its membership a draft IPR Policy that has

been developed by our Board, and requested that members review and

provide comment on this draft. (See

http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/members/200407/msg00002.html)

One of the documents in this review is the proposed Transition Policy,

which describes how TCs will transition to the new IPR Policy by

selecting an IPR mode to operate under, after which the OASIS members

(organizations and individuals) represented in the TC will vote to

ratify that selection.

In addition to the other issues in the IPR Policy that you individually

and your companies may be interested in, I would also appreciate your

TCs looking at, discussing, and commenting on the transition to the new

IPR Policy, as well as any other parts of the Policy that will affect

the day-to-day operations of the TC.

-Karl
