Ian et al

Thanks very much for all your efforts. I will take the next steps to officially close the TC in the next couple of days.

Although I'm sure that you all know this, I just want to reassure you that the historical record of the WS-TX TC will remain publicly available. The approved documents will of course be available in the OASIS Library and the archives of the TC, including the email archives, will remain visible. The primary email list for the TC will be closed and the archive retained. The TC comment email list will remain open so that people using the specs will have a way to reach out to you all in the future with questions or comments.

Congratulations & best regards,

/chet

Per section 2.15 of the TC Process [1] "Closing a TC", the TC has decided by a full majority vote of the TC membership to close the WS-Tx Technical Committee. The TC successfully delivered 3 OASIS open standard specifications:
WS-Coordination
WS-AtomicTransaction
WS-BusinessActivity

We delivered 2 versions of the standard, the most recent being V1.2 in 2009.

There are a number of mature implementations of these specifications and no outstanding issues being discussed by the TC.
In the early days of the TC we had many excellent discussions to tie down and deliver a tight set of specifications; we had some great face to face meetings in the US and Europe and developed some great working relationships which I think have (mostly) survived the duration of the TC.

Our work is done. Victory is declared. Thanks to everyone for making it both successful and enjoyable.
