As you know, your Consortium became OW2 on January 1, 2007, following merger with Orientware. The OW2 Consortium is a brand new organization: new governance, new bylaws, new membership categories, new Intellectual Property policy, etc. Therefore, as former ObjectWeb and Orientware members please note that membership is not automatically transferred from either ObjectWeb or Orientware to OW2. I am writing to you to remind you that, whether you are an organization or an individual, you must complete a registration process. First, please go to www.ow2.org, download and read the Consortium Bylaws, its Intellectual Property Rights Policy and its Membership Agreement. Then it is imperative you proceed through the OW2 Online Registration process: 1) Former ObjectWeb members Former ObjectWeb members may transfer their information to OW2 by login in at: http://myow2.objectweb.org/viewProfile.php. From there, you can validate or update the information we already have on yourself or your organization. 2) New members New members must complete the Online Registration process at http://joining.objectweb.org/registration.html Please note that the Online Registration process will automatically generate a completed Membership Agreement in .pdf format. All you need to do is print it and send two copies (of which one will be returned to you) of the signed original Membership Agreement to: OW2 Consortium Avenue du Port, 86C 1000 Bruxelles Belgium As membership fees are concerned, Purchasing Power Parity (PPP) rules as defined by the World Bank will be taken into account for developing countries. Please do not hesitate to contact me directly should you feel the PPP is applicable to your membership. With the Management Office, I look forward to working with you on making OW2 the leading open source middleware consortium it deserves to be.
