Contacting the plate: there is no violation, as long as the above requirement(s) are met, until contact with the ball by the bat. At the time of contact, fair or foul, any part of the batter touching the plate, batter's out. This is different than the whole foot being outside the box at the time of contact. Related, but different, violations, and not dependent upon one another.

Let's trade citations. Here's mine:
OBR 6.06(a) A batter is out for illegal action when -
He hits a ball with one of both feet on the ground entirely outside the batter's box.
Where's yours?
