Subject: Changes to be aware of
Greetings, As a matter of short introduction, my name is Jeff Lomas and I am the Senior Webmaster for OASIS. I am very honored to be of service. My team and I have been very busy over the past few months scaling the OASIS IT infrastructure to accommodate our extremely high volume of activity. Phase 1 of this effort have included the following: -Deploying 3 new enterprise-class servers. -Upgrading key software components including the Web Server, the FTP server, the mail server, and the DNS server. -Implementing a complete "Intranet to Extranet" failover and backup solution. -Establishing internal protocols to streamline request processing. The road has not been without its bumps. That being said, we are also experiencing the highest level of performance (possibly in the history of OASIS) at the same time we are experiencing our highest volume of traffic. Moving forward, it is my hope that we will see the road continue to smooth out before us as we begin developing online applications and higher-level functionality to better accommodate you and others within XML community. Look for some of these new features to come online as early as 1/01. In an effort to add an additional level of harmony to the esthetic of the OASIS website (http://www.oasis-open.org), we have created and applied standard templates for each committee to use for maintenance of their web pages. The template uses Server-Side Includes (SSI) as a means of supplying the document framework. A copy of the template (named template.shtml) can be found in your home directory. The template, itself, should be self-explanatory; however, there is two items I should note. -Before performing further maintenance on your web pages, you should download the current versions of these documents from our server. -Due to our server configuration, all documents using SSI should have 'shtml' as their extension. If you have any questions or comments of a technical nature, please do not hesitate contacting me. I am always at your service. Regards, Jeff Lomas, Webmaster OASIS PO BOX 455 Billerica, MA 978.667.5115 x205
