Subject: [OASIS members] OASIS News 30 September
OASIS News 30 September 2002 Welcome to OASIS News, a weekly update of announcements, accomplishments and activities for the XML interoperability consortium. --------------------------------------------------------- "Technologies to Facilitate Multi-Lingual Global e-Business" Survey OASIS has created a Global eBusiness survey in cooperation with LISA, www.lisa.org, to determine the impact of multi-lingual technologies (localization) on global e-business. The questions were designed to investigate the amount of current and future activity and resources devoted to using or developing localization products. We would like to express appreciation to the LISA OSCAR and the OASIS XLIFF TCs for their extensive contributions to the content of this survey, with a special note of recognition to Yves Savourel and Tony Jewtushenko. http://www.lisa.org/interact/2002/ebizsurvey.html --------------------------------------------------------- SAML and ebXML CPPA Committee Specifications Call for Votes October 1 begins the 30 day voting period for the SAML and ebXML CPPA Committee Specifications to become OASIS standards; each OASIS member organization will have a single vote on the ballot. Voting representatives from OASIS sponsors and contributors are encouraged to vote. The review materials are at http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/tc-announce/200207/msg00000.html for ebXML CPPA and http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/tc-announce/200207/msg00001.html for SAML. --------------------------------------------------------- Implementers Talk About Standards To advance the adoption of e-business standards, OASIS hosts open community discussion lists on XML, SAML, and ebXML. These lists provide a great forum for implementers and would-be implementers to exchange information.

Although the OASIS intellectual property policy allows both Royalty-Free (RF) and Reasonable and Non-Discriminatory (RAND) licensing, all LegalXML technical committees have decided to provide their work to the public on an RF basis. http://www.oasis-open.org/news/oasis_news_09_25_02.shtml --------------------------------------------------------- Subscribe to OASIS Newsletters and Discussion Lists A new online form makes it easy to subscribe to OASIS newsletters and discussion lists.
