Agenda

Executive Summary

Executive Summary
By Jane Harnad (per the source email)
Per the last StC meeting, there was an action item on the table for me to research a MS gathering opportunity at the ALM Forum.
Event Overview
By Jane Harnad (per the source email)
Location:
Sheraton Seattle Hotel
1400 Sixth Avenue, Seattle, WA 98101
Room: Lobby Lounge Bar
Time:
Monday, 30 March
4:30-6:30 PM
ALM Forum schedule: http://www.alm-forum.com/s14/schedule
Other Monday functions to consider:
Dinner hour, ALM Forum workshops (end 5:00 PM), other sponsored activities (Sean: we’re not aware of any right now)
Gathering Format:
Onsite PoC will arrange the popup banner and datasheets in a designated area within the bar. Committee members will distribute drink tickets until the max was reached and/or time has ended. Drinks only are currently in this plan; however, appetizers (if ordered in advance) can be made available.
Expense:
Drink tickets to be distributed to help manage costs. A maximum drink price will need to be outlined. The recommended price is $10 per drink – which will cover beer, wine, water, and soda. All beverages purchased will be subject to an additional 18% service charge and 9.50% tax. For example, if the average drink price is $10 per ticket, at two per guest, times 50 guests that would be $1000.00 for beverages, plus 18% service charge and tax (Total = $1292.10). OASIS will handle all the billing details – with an onsite PoC being responsible to monitor and sign off on charges.

1b Steering Committee Agenda for the ALM Forum [[discussion|review]: 15m]
Executive Summary
by Sean Kennedy
Per the last meeting, Sean has the responsibility to work with the Steering Committee to build an agenda so that they can make best use of their time at the conference (as well as simplify their travel approvals).
(The following is copied from the work item.)
At present, most of the agenda remains TBD.
“Known” activities:
- Monday: social networking event (if approved)
- Tuesday - Thursday: Exhibit Hall booth
- Tuesday or Wednesday: BoF session (still TBD by the conference)
- Tuesday - Thursday: Conference sessions
Desired/potential activities:
- OSLC Steering Committee F2F meeting
- Meetings with vendors to discuss OSLC implementations and/or community participation
- Meetings with onsite press and/or analysts
Questions:
- Which Steering Committee members already know whether they can attend?
- For those who are still unsure, what activities would be most likely to have a positive impact on their ability to attend?

Projected Order of Business
- 5m, Steve: provide an update

3. Control co-publishing standards of affiliated TCs [[discussion]: 10m]
Executive Summary
by Sean Kennedy
Should we try to add a statement to the OSLC MS RoPs to state that all OSLC MS affiliated TCs must seek StC approval before co-publishing a standard with another SDO?
See: https://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/oslc-sc/201401/msg00006.html
Per section 5.1 of the OASIS Member Section policy, “Once a Member Section Steering Committee is established at OASIS, it may modify its Member Section Rules of Procedure, subject to approval by the OASIS Board.”
It appears we already have coverage for this in the OSLC RoP in section f:
Technical Committees affiliated with this Member Section must obtain approval from the Steering Committee prior to submitting any deliverable to the OASIS Technical Committee Administration for OASIS Membership vote and prior to submitting any deliverable to de jure standards organizations. Approval by the Steering Committee will be by a simple majority vote.
Projected Order of Business
- 5m, Sean: review update
- 5m, Steering Committee: questions and comments
4. IBM Innovate conference [[discussion]: 20m]
4a Hospitality Suite [[preview|vote]: 10m]
Executive Summary
by Sean Kennedy
$2,000 were allocated in the Member Section budget to host a hospitality suite at Innovate again this year. As in the past, the event may have other sponsors to help increase the budget.
Key feedback from last year: seek a larger space
Proposal
Ask Sean Kennedy to investigate the process of hosting an OSLC hospitality suite in a larger venue at the Innovate 2014 conference.

The hotel bar is happy to host a “happy hour” timed (4:30 - 6:30) meetup. We can bring our banner and printed materials. We’ll have drink tickets to hand out.
A short survey should be created for attendees to complete (with pen and paper) as they come in (and get their drink ticket). Sean is to work on the questions.

2. TC Creation Update
