Title: RE: [legalxml-sc] Legal XHTML
|
You may create a KAVI vote, or you can solicit opinions in response to your email on the list. I will vote “no” on this motion. I cannot imagine anything less productive than getting into a pissing match with either Todd Vincent or John McClure, let alone both of them – two of the most stubborn and unpleasant people on the face of the earth. I believe that both xmlLegal and LegalXHTML are legally distinguishable from LegalXML. I do not feel threatened in the least by either of them. My guess is that we will find out from Dave Marvit that John McClure ended up on the loosing end of an important TC vote in eContracts and picked up his marbles and walked away – a recurring pattern for him. He is correct that eContracts has been in existence for years and has produced no specification. We have to live with that and keep working toward the prize. Any energy diverted from producing specifications is, in my mind, wasted energy.

I support action by our Steering Committee on behalf of the Member Section to trademark (or whatever is required) and protect our interest in "LegalXML" without being concerned simultaneously with the variations. While John Messing may be correct, that both should be taken on together (if and when there's any action about it), the step that needs to be taken first is to secure the Member Section's use of the "brand." This is not an area of expertise for me. As Member Section Secretary, I'll be glad to complete and submit forms, if someone will guide me. May I turn this into a motion? I move that the Steering Committee take appropriate steps to copyright and/or trademark the term "LegalXML" consistent with any governing OASIS policies and practices. Mr. Chairperson (Greacen): Should I make this a KAVI vote for the Steering Committee? Roger
