28. www.oasis-open.org Revising the OASIS IPR Policy: A Status Update Jeff Mischkinsky, Oracle IPR Sub-Committee

29. OASIS Board IPR Sub-Committee • Karl Best, OASIS • Ed Cobb, BEA (Chair) • Eduardo Gutentag, Sun • Frederick Hirsch, Nokia • Jim Hughes, HP • Chris Kurt, Microsoft • Jeff Mischkinsky, Oracle • Michael Weiner, IBM

30. Why a New IPR Policy • IPR Policy is very complex and important • Growing demand for Royalty-Free mode TCs • Board has an unsatisfactory stopgap in place that is being used by several TCs • Need for better clarity and definition of member obligations and rights • Currently NO obligation to provide licenses to implementers of OASIS specifications by TC participants • Even for RAND TCs

31. History/Status • IPR SC has been meeting for almost 2 years, quite intensively for the last several months • Now have a draft with a fairly short list of items that need to be resolved by the full Board • Had one review pass by OASIS legal counsel • Huge amount of progress has been made • Not everything has been resolved yet • Complex issues/trade-offs

32. Highlights of Proposed Changes (1) • Views OASIS as a federation of TCs • Supports goal of having OASIS specifications widely implemented • Defines RAND and RF modes • Defines licensing rules and obligations for TC members • TC members have obligation to disclose and license Essential Claims

33. Highlights of Proposed Changes (2) • Clarifies numerous ambiguities in the existing Policy • Restructures IPR framework and Policy to be more similar to other organizations • Revised Membership Agreement to bind members to OASIS Bylaws, IPR Policy, etc. • Possible • New Feedback Licenses for public comments • New Development Licenses for in-progress TCs

34. Highlights of Proposed Changes (3) • TC designated as RAND or RF when chartered • TC members acquire licensing obligations based on the level of their involvement in the work of the TC • Contribution obligation • Participation obligation • Only Obligated members have licensing obligations • All TC members have disclosure obligations

35. Items for Board Discussion • Definition of “contributions” • Do verbal statements count? • RF-Mode Details • What other “reasonable and non-discriminatory” license terms are acceptable? • Should there be an “opt-down” possibility? • License obligations • What about optional parts of specifications? • At what point in the process do you become obligated? • Transition details

36. Next Steps • Board resolution of remaining policy issues • Revised IPR Sub-Committee IPR Policy Draft • OASIS Legal Review • Board Endorses Draft for Member Review • Member Review and Feedback for consideration • Revised IPR Sub-Committee IPR Policy draft • Final Board Approval of IPR Policy • TC Process updated to reflect IPR Policy • Rollout and start of transition process
