UBL 1.0 balloting begins

[jon.bosak@sun.com]

Hello UBL TC,

Voting to approve UBL 1.0 as an OASIS Standard has begun; see
notice attached.  The voting period ends 31 October -- just two
weeks from now.

The hardest part of getting Committee Drafts approved as OASIS
Standards is persuading the OASIS organizations to vote.  I urge
all UBL participants affiliated with OASIS member organizations to
contact their voting representative as soon as possible to ensure
that they cast a ballot to approve UBL 1.0 before the end of the
voting period.  Directions for identifying voting representatives
are contained in the message below.

Jon Bosak
Chair, OASIS UBL TC

Subject: [members] balloting for OASIS Standard

OASIS members:

On 30 September 2004 I sent out review materials for the following 
Committee Drafts that had been submitted for consideration as OASIS 
Standards:

WS-Reliability v1.1
http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/tc-announce/200409/msg00010.html

Universal Business Language (UBL) v1.0
http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/tc-announce/200409/msg00009.html

These Committee Drafts have each had their required 30 day public 
review, and the review materials were sent out to the membership of 
OASIS for the required 15-day familiarization period. As the required 
review and familiarization periods have now been completed it is time to 
vote. I am sending out a Call For Vote for this specification to the 
voting representatives of each of the OASIS member organizations.

As each OASIS member organization has only one vote, you should give 
your input to your organization's voting representative so that he/she 
can decide how to vote on your behalf. If you don't know who your 
organization's voting representative is, go to the My Account page at 
http://www.oasis-open.org/members/user_tools then select the link for 
View Company Roster, then look for the name designated as "Primary".
