Subject: Invitation to comment on Electronic Court Filing v5.0 - ends Nov. 27th


OASIS members and other interested parties, 

We are pleased to announce that Electronic Court Filing Version 5.0 is now available for public review and comment. 

ECF defines a technical architecture and a set of components, operations and message structures for an electronic court filing system, and sets forth rules governing its implementation. Version 5.0 provides a number of enhancements including:

- Support for scheduling of court hearings using [WS-Calendar]
- Limited electronic service of process to process servers and registered agents
- New Document Stamp and operations support retrieval of case information required for stamping
- New Court Policy MDE to better support electronic filing systems with multiple FilingReview MDEs
- Support for cancellation of filings
- Conformance with the 4.0 version of the National Information Exchange Model ([NIEM]), a national standard for information sharing, new NIEM domains including Biometrics and Human Services
- Conformance with the [NIEM Code Lists] specification version 1.0 and the representation of all ECF code lists in [Genericode] format.
- Conformance with the 2.2 version of the Universal Business Language ([UBL]).
- Better management of extensions through [NIEM] augmentations.
- Deprecated content references (e.g. referring to related entities with common identifiers) in favor or element references (e.g. referring to related elements with structures:ref attributes) as described in Reference Rules.
- Clarifications and improvements throughout the specification based on feedback from implementers of the ECF 4.0 and 4.01 specifications

Version 5.0 does not assume that prior versions will be deprecated. However, it is not backward-compatible and applications using the ECF 3.0, 3.01 and 3.1, 4.0 and 4.01 specifications will not interoperate successfully with applications using this version.
