Voting Reps,
A message from Board Candidate Frederick Hirsch

______________________________________________________
Dear OASIS Board of Directors Voters,
Please remember to vote in the Oasis board of director's
election, which concludes today at 23:30, EST. Voting representatives have received, by email, a link
to the ballot. The ballot is also accessible from your "My Groups"
page https://www.oasis-open.org/apps/org/workgroup/portal/my_workgroups.php
and it can be found on the Voting Group page: http://www.oasis-open.org/apps/org/workgroup/voting/
Of course I suggest you vote for me, Frederick Hirsch, and
consider the following points:
1. I believe it is important for the future of service
oriented architectures, web services and Oasis that we move standards forward
in a way that is open to participation. This should lead to better results, can
reduce the overall time to create market opportunities and preserve Oasis
credibility. Specifically, I do not believe standards should be rubber-stamped
and wish to ensure this is the case. As you are aware, there is an entire
roadmap of excellent web services related work that will need standardization -
I would like to see this move forward in a positive, timely and open manner,
yet allow incorporation of other valuable work.
2. IPR should be RF when possible, yet the efforts of
producers should be considered, so RAND is
sometimes appropriate. In addition, more than these labels should be considered
- license terms are also important. I believe Oasis should make the terms very
clear by making public such information in an accessible way.
3. The number of industry and Oasis initiatives can be
confusing, some horizontal in nature, some vertical. We can work toward
clarifying this to enable participants and others to better understand the
value of the Oasis work.
4. I work at Nokia and can bring mobile perspectives to
Oasis.
I want to keep this short, so you can read my full statement
and answers to questions at

Thank you, please vote for me, keeping these points in mind.
regards, Frederick
