I am not american, but I have to agree to all of the following:

 - Nobody trusts the OIS or its motives.
 - the purpose of the OIS is to lobby towards a business model for Microsoft

  and the other OIS members that involves the removal of non-compliant
 security researchers.
 - This call for feedback is a thinly disguised attempt to get public
 legitimacy and allow the OIS to claim it has community backing, which it
 clearly does not.

Cheers,
