The only people who can participate in any way at a TC Meeting are those listed on the roster. That is, to attend as an observer, one must be an OASIS member and be listed on the TC Roster. In order to be able to speak at a meeting one must be on the roster as a Member, Voting Member, Chair or Secretary.
Only TC Members may post to the TC mailing list; observers are subscribed and receive the emails but cannot post. Observers wishing to provide input must use the comment facility.
There is a member post on this topic here: http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/tcmembers/200903/msg00000.html

Standards are like parachutes: they work best when they're open.

As I understand, someone who is not an OASIS member of the WG, such as an observer, is not allowed to participate in the meeting. Thus far in each of our OASIS KMIP meetings, we have had at least once observer attempt to inject themselves into the discussion. In fact we had a case when non-member attempted to object to a motion made by a member. And while in some cases a member as objected, I suspect there have been times where an observer comments have gone unchallenged ... particularly when it is sometimes very difficult to determine who is speaking.
May I suggest that after the attendance call is completed, that the Chair make an announcement that kindly reminds those present that observers are welcome to observe but may not speak during the meeting?
Also: Are there restrictions on observers participating in the KMIP mailing list forum?
