OASIS News 28 August 2006 Welcome to OASIS News, a weekly update of announcements, accomplishments, and activities for the international standards consortium. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- OASIS Updates Its TC Process The OASIS TC Process, the principal rules for standards development in OASIS' technical committees, have been amended by the OASIS Board of Directors. There are several significant process improvements suggested by members, as well as some clarifications. The rules for starting a new OASIS technical committee have been improved. Also, the review period for a new TC proposal is now 30 days, to permit wider review. Compliant proposals will be posted within five days of receipt, and member comments invited for two weeks, as a part of the preparations for launch. While the proposers still will define the committee's scope, this increased transparency should assist in optimizing new projects and driving re-use and convergence. OASIS has also added an official method for adopting "Approved Errata" for existing approved standards, which will allow committees to give official sanction to errata lists, when they wish, short of issuing a new version of a spec. The changes are effective immediately. http://www.oasis-open.org/archives/members/200608/msg00008.html ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Public Review Begins for Web Services Reliable Messaging v1.1 The OASIS Web Services Reliable Exchange (WS-RX) TC has recently approved the Web Services Reliable Messaging v1.1 and Web Services Reliable Messaging Policy Assertion v1.1 specification set as a Committee Draft and approved the package for public review.
