Dear Trustees and LC,<br>
<br>
I bring your attention to <a href="http://open-stand.org" target="_blank">open-stand.org</a> which
summarized as a statement of principles (<a href="http://open-stand.org/principles/" target="_blank">http://open-stand.org/principles/</a>)
of a modern paradigm for standards development. <br>
<ul>
<li><strong>Due process.</strong> Decisions are made with
equity and fairness among participants. No one party
dominates or guides standards development. Standards
processes are transparent and opportunities exist to appeal
decisions. Processes for periodic standards review and
updating are well defined.</li>
<li><strong>Broad consensus.</strong> Processes allow for all
views to be considered and addressed, such that agreement
can be found across a range of interests.</li>
<li><strong>Transparency.</strong> Standards organizations
provide advance public notice of proposed standards
development activities, the scope of work to be undertaken,
and conditions for participation. Easily accessible records
of decisions and the materials used in reaching those
decisions are provided. Public comment periods are provided
before final standards approval and adoption.</li>
<li><strong>Balance.</strong> Standards activities are not
exclusively dominated by any particular person, company or
interest group.</li>
<li><strong>Openness.</strong> Standards processes are open to
all interested and informed parties.</li>
</ul>
As an agenda item I'd like to ask both the Trustees and LC to
discuss the OpenStand and to consider Kantara support (<a href="http://open-stand.org/stand-with-us/" target="_blank">http://open-stand.org/stand-with-us/</a>)
for this movement. This is not a monetary commitment but a
statement of support for the principles. While Kantara
Initiative is not a Standards body, organizations like Kantara,
industry groups, user groups ,ect depend upon the consensus
based and transparent development of open standards. <br>
<br>
Please consider the above at each groups earliest opportunity. <br>
<br>
Best Regards,<br clear="all">
=Joni<br>
