RE: OASIS 4/14/2006: Submission to Mike Rawlins - ebXML Update

["Carol Geyer" <carol.geyer@oasis-open.org>]

I think this would be great. I know I haven't always agreed with Mike's
previous articles on ebXML, but we definitely want to be included in
this five-year update. (Can it really be five years already?)

Note: we have a new OASIS white paper template at
http://docs.oasis-open.org/templates/. Technically, that's for use with
white papers that have been approved by one or more OASIS TCs.

Carol, Mary, Jamie,
We need to know if we provide this informational overview to Mike
Rawlins, if there are any OASIS requirements surrounding it. The
ebxml-jc doesn't have normative ranking as a group, so anything is
non-normative in nature.[1] The same question would hold true for other
ebXML TCs, where the circumstances may be perceived differently.

Please let us know as the deadline is next week. Thanks.

We recently received this request and thought it was a good idea to
summarize our white paper so that the material could be used publicly
for Rawlins. I have a draft summary already produced [1]. Are there any
gates to provide this public summary to Rawlins (other than allowing
ourselves some scrutiny given past experience)? Any feedback this week
would be greatly appreciated as submissions are requested by 15 April. 
Thanks.

Subject: [ebxml-dev] Call for Participation - ebXML 5 Years Later

As a follow on to my series ebXML - A Critical Analysis, published in
2001 and 2002, I am planning an update of ebXML at 5 years.  This time,
rather than limiting the analysis to my own perspective I would like to
offer a forum to other voices.  Submissions should be approximately
1,000 words in length and will be accepted in text, HTML, DocBook, or MS
Word.  Submission deadline is COB April 15, 2006.

The ideal submission will deal with one particular aspect of the ebXML
technical infrastructure, such as messaging, registry, core components,
etc.  Such submissions should deal with the current state of the
relevant technical specifications and address adoption of the
specifications.  General interest topics, such as case studies or market
research about adoption rates, will also be given consideration.  
Authors should also include a brief (50 word) biography outlining their
involvement in ebXML efforts.

Authors may retain all copyrights but must grant Rawlins EC Consulting
the rights to post the edited submission for an unlimited time on our
web site.

Please send submissions to mcr2 AT rawlinsecconsulting DOT com.
