Subject: UBL 2.1 JSON Alternate Representation v1.0 and Business Document Naming and Design Rules v1.1 start public review - ends April 1st


OASIS members and other interested parties, 

The OASIS Universal Business Language TC [1] members have recently approved two Committee Drafts and submitted them for 60 day public review:

Business Document Naming and Design Rules Version 1.1
Committee Specification Draft 01 / Public Review Draft 01
11 January 2017

and

UBL 2.1 JSON Alternative Representation Version 1.0
Committee Note Draft 01 / Public Review Draft 01
11 January 2017

Overview:

An important and powerful method to design interoperable business documents is to construct logical semantic models using concepts described in the UN/CEFACT Core Components Technical Specification (CCTS) Version 2.01.  From these semantic models one can create physical syntax models with which to express the content constraints of actual business documents to be interchanged.

The OASIS Business Document Naming and Design Rules (BDNDR) Version 1.1 Draft Specification prescribes a set of naming and design rules used to create complete CCTS models of interoperable business documents.  It also includes the rules needed to create validation artefacts corresponding to them.  For XML syntax, the rules govern creating W3C Schema (XSD) and OASIS Context/value Association (CVA) validation artefacts.  For JSON syntax, the rules govern creating JSON Schema validation artefacts.

JSON is the _javascript_ Object Notation described by ISO/IEC 21778 Information technology — The JSON data interchange format, initially published at https://www.ecma-international.org/publications/standards/Ecma-404.htm as ECMA 404 The JSON data interchange format.  JSON Schema is the vocabulary described at http://json-schema.org for annotating and validating JSON documents.

BDNDR Version 1.1 changes no rules for XML syntax from BDNDR Version 1.0 and only adds the new rules prescribed for JSON syntax.

The UBL 2.1 JSON Alternative Representation Version 1.0 Draft Note engages the JSON rules from BDNDR and publishes the CCTS models of UBL 2.1 as json-schema.org validation artefacts.  Also included in the package is a transliteration into JSON syntax of each of the UBL 2.1 sample XML instances, all of which validate with the provided JSON schemas.

These two work products are being published simultaneously for reviewers to work with a complete implementation of the proposed new rules for JSON serialization of CCTS document models.  The OASIS UBL TC welcomes formal feedback of this new approach to working with JSON syntax.  Please use the https://www.oasis-open.org/committees/comments/index.php?wg_abbrev=ubl
comment list to do so.

Public Review Period:

The public review starts 01 February 2017 at 00:00 UTC and ends 01 April 2017 at 23:59 UTC. 

This is an open invitation to comment. OASIS solicits feedback from potential users, developers and others, whether OASIS members or not, for the sake of improving the interoperability and quality of its technical work.
