Fwd: [members] Update to the OASIS citation format

["Dr. David Filip" <David.Filip@ul.ie>]

Hi everyone, this is just to let you know that I am going to adjust the citation in our specification to conform to the new OASIS format, as advised by Chet below.

This change will be in the next printout. Please let me know by the end of this week if you see any issue with doing that.

OASIS members, 

As you know, all OASIS documents contain a citation format section on the cover page that provides our recommended form for others who want to cite the work. You find these on the document's cover pages just before the Notices page. 

We have made two changes to this format. Starting this year, the citations will list the editors from the title page in the top to bottom order provided by the TC. And in addition to the direct link to the document, we will include the 'Latest version' link as well. 

Here is a recent example: 

---

Citation format: 

When referencing this specification the following citation format should be used: 

[OBIX-REST]

Bindings for OBIX: REST Bindings Version 1.0. Edited by Craig Gemmill and Markus Jung. 19 December 2013. OASIS Committee Specification Draft 02. http://docs.oasis-open.org/obix/obixrest/v1.0/csd02/obix-rest-v1.0-csd02.html. 

---

Let me know if you have any questions on the citation format.
