Peter,
Nice to hear from you.
If anyone has a significant comment -- especially if we are missing or causing a pain point -- I'd prefer a discussion then rather than continuing down a path we're going to be asked to be change later. You can send an email directly to me or someone else on the SC and we can cc the list on the return message.

There have been times when I’ve been tempted to comment, however, as an observer, this cannot be done. What would be helpful would be for the RA SC to submit their main drafts to the RM TC mailing list so that the full TC is able to comment and have some exchange in advance of a full TC meeting – it goes without saying that this should *not* be an occasion for re-opening debates that have been exhaustively pursued within the RA, but focus on the high-level oversight... All the best, Peter TC:
As many of you are aware, the SOA Reference Architecture Subcommittee has been working diligently for well over 18 months on developing a Reference Architecture based on the OASIS Reference Model for SOA. I am happy to report that this work is nearing a 1.0 status as a Committee Draft (CD). The Sub Committee will likely be ready to present this work to the larger RM list in order to submit it for a vote to become a CD, an important step on the road to becoming a full blown OASIS standard.
It is anticipated that the SOA RM TC will convene a meeting somewhere around April 23, 2008 to call for such a vote.
If you wish to review the status of the work, please note that there is a lot of work outstanding on it (no comments requested at this time as the comment hopper is full).
ISO
There has also been a discussion about submitting the Reference Model for SOA to ISO. There are steps and important things we all have to understand to complete this task. This discussion needs to happen during a formal TC meeting.
We anticipate that a formal SOA RM call is required to meet the needs of the TC and SC. I also want to ask, as Chair, for any other agenda items people might wish for such a meeting.
Duane
