Dear OCP Community
OCP is excited to announce some great changes. The OCP Foundation, along
with our Incubation Committee (IC) and our Volunteer Leadership, has been
working overtime to update some key documents. We wanted to inform you of
these changes as they will impact future specification contributions and
OCP product recognition program requirements. There are 2 changes that we
wanted to inform you about - one on process and one on our volunteer
leadership. All of these are reflected on our website as of today but will
be effective on July 7th.
