OASIS News 6 January 2006 Welcome to OASIS News, a weekly update of announcements, accomplishments, and activities for the international standards consortium. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- EML and WS-Security Submitted for Consideration as OASIS Standards OASIS members are asked to review two new candidates for OASIS Standards. Election Markup Language (EML) v4.0, submitted by the OASIS Election and Voter Services TC, is designed to enable the exchange of data for public and private election services. The WS-Security v1.1 specification, developed by the OASIS Web Services Security (WSS) TC, delivers a technical foundation for implementing security functions such as integrity and confidentiality in messages implementing higher-level Web services applications. The familiarization period for both specifications ends 15 Jan, and a call for voting will be issued 16 Jan. http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/members/200601/msg00000.html http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/members/200601/msg00001.html ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Public Review of WS-Topics Specification Begins The OASIS Web Services Notification (WSN) TC has approved the WS-Topics v1.3 specification for public review. All interested parties are encouraged to provide comments on this document, designed to advance a pattern-based approach allowing Web services to disseminate information to one another. Comments on WS-Topics must be received by 20 Jan. http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/members/200512/msg00010.html http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/members/200512/msg00009.html ---------------------------------------------------------------------- OASIS Extends Symposium Call for Participation Deadline Due to the recent holidays and a number of requests from potential contributors, the deadline to submit topics for this year's OASIS Symposium has been extended.

In order to avoid duplication, all those interested in translating WSBEL or BPEL4WS into Japanese are asked to review the BPEL Seminar wiki at http://wiki.livedoor.jp/the_pandas_panda/d/Translation. OASIS encourages volunteer efforts like this to translate or fund the translation of OASIS Standards, specifications or other documents.
