Subject: ebXML Mktg charter (was) RE: [ebxml-jc] ... Update on eBusiness Standards Convergence ...
I have a few quick responses to some of Carol's comments: [cag2] -- Why mention original ebXML principles? JBC -- I think this reference was in the ebSOA TC charter also. It was intended to point to, and impose, consistency with the approved ebXML Requirements from 2001, which embodies some guiding principles like modularity, composability, simplicity, free availability, etc. Personally I think those principles are still essential to anything called 'ebXML', but that's just my opinion. [cag5] -- Are we limited to supporting those ebXML users who *are* OASIS members? JBC -- While it's not necessarily requied that we *say* this, there are some difference in the proposed TC, from the prior outside-of-OASIS-rules marketing effort. Carol's in the best position to articulate what kinds of support can be provided to nonmembers. [cag6] -- About funds solicitation and use JBC -- I have the same concern as Karl expressed. [cag7] -- Who can "welcome" changes to ebXML? JBC -- This depends on how OASIS negotiations with CEFACT go. We may (but have not yet) consider or reach some kind of agreement to pick up old liaisons and shared efforts there. [cag11] -- Can the Mktg TC impose duties on other TCs? JBC -- I agree with Carol, they cannot. Not only do the rules not permit this, but it's unrealistic. [cag13] -- What relationship with other ebXML users (ebXML Asia, etc)? JBC -- Here's my unofficial take: (1) Anyone can join, and we will encourage this as we always do (2) The OASIS Liaison Policy applies, and provides some additional methods (3) UN/ECE, as an original co-owner, may have the opportunity to enjoy some special relationship with the work, which we need to define by negotiation. (4) OASIS does retain the right to control use of the brand and copyright, as with all our work. Due to the widely-distributed and joint nature of the original work, we probably will be fairly broad and unrestrictive in our encouragement and tolerance of parallel efforts.
