    3. Motion (simple majority): Approve the Agenda

    4. The ODF TC has been presented with three (3) statements of use for
    ODF 1.4, as follows:

    a. Microsoft, Alfred Hellstern,
    https://groups.oasis-open.org/discussion/statement-of-use-from-microsoft

    b. allotropia software GmbH, Michael Stahl,
    https://groups.oasis-open.org/discussion/statement-of-use-for-open-document-format-for-office-applications-opendocument-version-14-cs01

    c. The Document Foundation, Florian Effenberger,

    5. Next step:

    "After the approval of a Committee Specification, and after three
    Statements of Use referencing the Committee Specification have been
    presented to the TC, a TC may resolve by Special Majority Vote to submit
    the Committee Specification as a candidate for OASIS Standard. At least
    one of the Statements of Use must come from an OASIS Organizational
    Member. The TC may decide to withdraw the submission, by Special
    Majority Vote, at any time until the final approval. The chair shall
    submit the request for the Special Majority Vote using the request
    mechanism designated by the OASIS TC Administrator."

    The Special Majority Vote is conducted by the OASIS TC Administrator.

    (I have a post to Kelly asking what is the "request mechanism" now.)

    6. "New" issues, sorted from oldest to newest - housekeeping
