Welcome to OASIS News, a weekly update of announcements,
accomplishments, and activities for the international standards
consortium.

Host an OASIS Open Standards Day

The OASIS Open Standards Day program offers members the opportunity to
host a local event showcasing the array of Web services and XML work
being advanced within the Consortium. It is a great way for an
organization to publicize its involvement in OASIS and increase local
awareness of and participation in Consortium activities.
