Modifications to the Open Project Rules approved by the OASIS Board of Directors
Chet Ensign
Open Project PGB members and OASIS members, At its meeting on June 14, 2022, the OASIS Board of Directors approved updates to the OASIS Open Project Process as well as minor changes to the Committee Operations Process and the Open Repository Guidelines and Procedures. Staff recommended these changes to address issues raised by several projects as well as our own lessons learned. The proposals go into effect immediately. The specific changes can be seen in the attached red-line copies of these documents. We do not anticipate these to have a significant impact on your ongoing project work. Briefly: 1. The first (and most important) change can be found in the OP Rules at lines 121 to 137 as a proposed new section 5.7. This change would allow OP PGBs to elect to apply the same quorum, non-voting, and persistent non-voting rules that TCs enjoy to their OP operations. Several PGBs have struggled to achieve regular quorum and make progress. By adopting a Standing Rule, OPs will now be able to gracefully scale down voting and quorum to those who show up and vote regularly. As with TCs, this would not change any other commitments or privileges of Sponsorship. 2. The second change is about Technical Steering Committees (TSC), and can be found in the attached marked OP Rules at lines 70 to 78 and 142 to 152. These changes simply clarify that a project can have multiple TSCs and how TSCs are represented on the PGB. 3. At lines to 242 to 245 (Section 10), we attempt to emphasize that, generally speaking, we don't expect Open Projects to adhere to a lot of rigid formalities; they're entitled to run as a consensus process, without a lot of formal motions, seconding and Roberts Rules behaviors. Related changes on the same topic also are in the OASIS Committee Operations Process at lines 74 to 76 and 162 to 166. 4. In the Open Repository rules, which allow TCs to launch open source projects on the side, we changed the language from a list of applicable open source licenses that would require maintaining to a statement that it is the same as for the Open Project Rules. Lines 53 to 58. 5. Two other minor patches to the OASIS Committee Operations Process were approved, in addition to the "consensus" issue noted above. The first is at lines 136 to 145, where the role and requirements for "standing rules" is slightly clarified. The second is to the informative table of project roles and functions after line 56. These were made to better explain what each role in an Open Project may do. 6. Finally, as general clean-up, small, non-substantive editorial corrections were made at lines 21, 80, 84, 87, and 205 of the OP Rules, and lines 82, 83 and 99 of the OASIS Committee Operations Process. Again, we do not expect these to have major impacts on your work but, as always, feel free to contact us with any questions.

OASIS seeks a new Executive Director

Greetings all project Chairs, I learned yesterday that the news that OASIS is seeking a new Executive Director didn't get out as widely as we'd thought. Please forgive this extra email if you are already aware of it but this search is key to OASIS's ability to support you and your communities in the years ahead.

Identify reps for OriginBX Working Groups
OriginBX PGB members, As discussed on today's call, we've started this spreadsheet to help us get more OriginBX Working Groups off-the-ground. Please take a moment to indicate the WG(s) your organization will be represented on. (WG participation is not a huge time commitment.) Your support will be a huge help in recruiting more members for these WGs. We're using the second sheet on this document to track confirmed and potential WG chairs. If you have suggestions for people who we should invite to chair a WG, please let us know. Thanks!

OASIS Services Packages and New Sponsorship Options for Open Projects
OriginBX PGB Members, The OASIS Open Projects program has come a long way since it was introduced in early 2019. We owe so much to the support, suggestions, and experiences you've brought to us. Based on some of your feedback and lessons we've learned together, we've made two exciting updates that we hope will provide more clarity, opportunities, and options for your group. Note that these do not impose any changes on your current membership.
2) We've added "Premier" option for OCA sponsorship.
Staff will be available to discuss these updates at upcoming PGB meetings. If you have specific questions in the meantime, please don't hesitate to contact me directly. Thanks so much for your continued support, Carol
