Subject: Oracle Contribution on Criteria for Selecting Delegates to February 2008 DIS 29500 Ballot Resolution Meeting
From: Don Deutsch, Oracle




Jennifer,

Although I have not seen any official notification to that effect, I understand that it is highly likely that the size of delegations to the Ballot Resolution Meeting for DIS 29500 will be limited.   Anticipating that we may have to prune the
preliminary list of US delegates submitted on December 10, 2007 ( in071740), please add to Agenda Item 9.3.4 for the 24-26 January 2008 meeting of the INCITS Executive Board the following contribution.
The US delegation to the February 2008 DIS 29500 Ballot Resolution Meeting should be representative of the various constituents and positions on this contentious topic.  Toward that objective, Oracle recommends the following guidelines for selecting representatives up to the number allowable:
  1. The delegation should include members in good standing from both the EB and V1
  2. The delegation should include representatives from both/all sides of the issue
  3. The delegation should include no more than one representative from any single member organization
Cheers...Don
