The
OSGi Working
Group Charter
identifies the Steering Committee and Specification Committee as the key governing bodies to drive the facets of the working group for which there are elected positions to be filled.
While
the Strategic Members are appointed, the elected positions are for the Participant and Committer Members for which there are two seats for Participant Members and one seat for Committer Members to be elected for the Steering Committee.. Please note; the Steering
Committee fulfills the responsibilities of the Specification Committee.
