Subject: FORMAL: Revised rules for UBL localization subcommittees
Hello UBL TC,
On 6 April, I sent you a proposal for revising our rules regarding
UBL localization subcommittees:
http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/ubl/200604/msg00024.html
Having received no substantive responses, I'm going to assume that
you are OK with the proposed changes and now put this to you
formally. On approval, the revised rules below will replace the
LSC rules adopted in 2003:
http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/ubl/200311/msg00006.html
If any voting member of the UBL TC disagrees with adoption of the
revised rules below, please signify the same by posting an
objection to this list no later than COB Sunday 30 April 2006. If
you have no objection to adoption of the revised rules, do
nothing.
Jon Bosak
Chair, OASIS UBL TC
