OASIS Offers Wikis for TCs

In response to requests by TCs, OASIS has installed a wiki server and is currently conducting a beta test of its functionality with
several TCs, including the OASIS XRI and XDI TCs. Wikis are considered by some to be a useful "scratch space" tool for collaborative
work. The testing phase for this optional facility is expected to be complete as early as the end of July. TCs that would find
benefit in a wiki should contact tc-admin@oasis-open.org.

OASIS HumanMarkup TC Publishes White Paper

The new HumanMarkup Language white paper addresses the vision to improve the fidelity of human-to-human, human-to-machine and
machine-to-machine communication in digital information systems that represent human information, issues, and concerns. HumanML uses
XML contextually to convey cultural, social, kinesics, and psychological intent within communications.

OASIS Seeks Candidates for Regional Offices Program 

OASIS is seeking organizations that will act as local points of contact for the Consortium, promoting the work of OASIS, providing
local language assistance, and encouraging international participation. The OASIS Regional Offices Program was created to increase
awareness and local participation, better facilitate collaboration, and promote awareness and adoption of OASIS standards and
specifications within a specific geographic community. Ideal candidates for this new program include institutes, universities,
non-profit organizations, and government agencies.
