Subject: use of "wsrm" in docs. oasis-open.org namespace
Recently another OASIS committee, the WS-RX TC, suggested that they use the partial namespace: [docs.oasis-open.org/wsrm/...] for final versions of documents. The WS-RX TC is producing work tentatively entitled "WS Reliable Messaging", to which the character string "wsrm" was intended to point. I informed them that the foregoing namespace was reserved for your TC, and that in our document handling at OASIS, the first token space immediately after the domain generally is populated from a controlled vocabulary of the official TC short names. So, for example, your OASIS standard is located at: [docs.oasis-open.org/wsrm/ws-reliability/v1.1/...] ' where "wsrm" is your TC name token, and "ws-reliability" is the product (spec) name token. Some members of the WS-RX TC indicated a desire to use the following possible alternative approach: [docs.oasis-open.org/ws-rx/wsrm/....] where "wsrm" would indicate a product name, not a TC. As you may recall, at this time, documents are uploaded to the [docs.oasis-open.org] space only by OASIS staff action. So staff approval of the correct URI is a practical precondition to any upload. I informed the WS-RX TC that, if we received requests from them to upload to a URI of that kind, OASIS staff would inquire whether your TC (as user of the "wsrm" token) had any objection to it being used in a different context. Objections from your TC would not necessarily be determinative, but would be a factor about which we'd want be aware, before acting. I see that you discussed but did not adopt a TC position on this issue at your recent TC meeting. We would appreciate being advised of the views of such TC members as wish to express an opinion, formally or informally.
