OASIS/XML.ORG Infrastructure

The OASIS web domains have been running smoothly at Exodus for about a month now. The server at Superb has been disconnected, and OASIS has ended our relationship with Superb. The mail lists are also running smoothly and without problems. The XML.org Registry server continues to run at iStructure, with the normal minor and occasional outages. Jeff Lomas has recently moved the CGMOpen domain (web and mail list) to the OASIS server, and is redesigning the CGMOpen web page to look more like the OASIS home page. Development of Phase 2 projects (membership database, content mgmt system/portal, etc) will begin as soon as we hire an IT director.

NEW BUSINESS

URN Namespace TC Proposal - Karl
Board has agreed that a URN namespace proposal to IETF is wanted, and authorized Karl and Norm Walsh to prepare and submit this. The only change from the original draft submitted to the booard by Karl is that XML.org should be a separate namespace on the same level as OASIS.

Discussion on Strategic Growth via M&As Confidential discussion regarding strategic expansion.
