Those are output formats. Why would we limit users to just
one?
Even though as the ODF editor I would prefer that everyone output to ODF,
I can understand why others feel equally strongly for their output formats.
The real fight would be over a uniform format. The underlying representation
that is output is a detail. An important one but still just a detail.
Personally I would welcome an activity to declare meaningful rules for
formatting OASIS standards, provided those rules were enforced.
If nothing else, it would make the main work product of our committees
have some appearance of issuing from the same organization (other than
the cover pages).
Hope you are having a great day!

specs be created in an OASIS XML format?

This would really cut down on the iterative churn that seems to frustrate
the people involved in the publication process. Great idea!
