A clear English-language summary of the specification; WS-Notification is a family of related specifications that define a standard Web services approach to notification using a topic-based publish/subscribe pattern. It includes: standard message exchanges to be implemented by service providers that wish to participate in Notifications, standard message exchanges for a notification broker service provider (allowing publication of messages from entities that are not themselves service providers), operational requirements expected of service providers and requestors that participate in notifications, and an XML model that describes topics. The WS-Notification family of documents includes three normative specifications: WS-BaseNotification, WS-BrokeredNotification, and WS-Topics. 5. A statement regarding the relationship of this specification to similar work of other OASIS TCs or other standards developing organizations; The WSN specifications make use of the OASIS WSRF specifications, and are themselves used by OASIS WSDM. A spec similar to WS-BaseNotification, called WS-Eventing, has been submitted to the W3C as a member submission, see http://www.w3.org/Submission/2006/03/ The W3C has noted the similarity to the work of the WS-Notification TC, see http://www.w3.org/Submission/2006/03/Comment 6.
