RE: [regrep] FW: [chairs] relations with W3C

["Damodaran, Suresh" <Suresh_Damodaran@stercomm.com>]

Hi Kathryn,

A good relation between OASIS and W3C will be really useful
and very helpful in creating clean specs.
I have a few general comments.

1. For those W3C standards (and submissions) that are used in OASIS
standards
efforts (e.g., XPath, XSL, SOAP, WSDL, XMLDSIG,... used in ebXML) it would
be useful to have
the relevant OASIS standards in the "official" review loop of the W3C
standards.
Since OASIS is a consumer of many of W3C standards, it would streamline and
strengthen
the review process.

2. It would be helpful for W3C and OASIS review at least the e-Business
related activities and come to an understanding of the relationships so that
this understanding
can be fed back to the W3C WGs and OASIS TCs. This will also help the review
process mentioned in (1) above. An example of such related activities would
be 
ebXML in OASIS and Web Services Activity in W3C [1].

3. A well documented clarification of IP policy differences of OASIS and W3C
pertaining to different types of documents (submissions, specifications,
etc.)  will be helpful to
those implementing to these standards. 

Regards,
-Suresh

Team,
Since Karl needs this before our next meeting, please send your comments or
concerns about liaison relationships with a W3C working group or other
activity to our list, and I will compile the comments by end of day Tuesday
and forward them to Karl as a package from our TC.

Chairs:

The managements of OASIS and of W3C have been in conversation the last
couple of months about how the two organizations could better be working
together. As part of our discussions W3C has asked for specific problems
or concerns that should be addressed.

In preparation for our next meeting at the end of next week I would like
to hear from any of the OASIS TCs that now have or could have a liaison
relationship with a W3C working group or activity, or whose technical
work in some way overlaps or relates to their work.

Please let me know what specific issues your TC may have including but
not limited to obstacles to working together, divergent goals, IP
issues, scheduling issues, what groups you need to work with, etc.
