Volunteers serve the international community by translating OASIS documents into other languages. OASIS acknowledges the individuals and organizations who volunteers their efforts to create translations. Contact translation-admin@oasis-open.org http://www.oasis-open.org/about/available_translations.php ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Discussion List for UOML Seeks Participants OASIS has opened a public mail list for the discussion of a possible new OASIS Unstructured Operation Markup Language (UOML) TC. UOML defines an XML schema for universal document operations. The proposers plan to contribute UOML to an TC if it is formed, for further review and refinement. The schema is suitable for operating written documents, including create, view, modify, query information that can be printed in paper, e.g. books, magazine, newspaper, office documents, maps, drawings, blueprints, but is not restricted to these kinds of documents. Anyone, including OASIS members and non-members, may subscribe to this list by sending a message to: uoml-discuss-subscribe@lists.oasis-open.org ---------------------------------------------------------------------- OASIS Revises Membership Categories and Dues The Consortium's Board of Directors has approved a set of revised membership categories and dues, effective 1 September 2006 for new memberships and 1 January 2007 for renewals. The changes address a variety of concerns and reflect much member input. While the existing levels of OASIS membership remain the same, additional categories are being offered at each level to provide greater parity and better accommodate organizations of different sizes and types. Dues (which have remained stable since 2002) have been adjusted in order to maintain the financial health and capability of the consortium, to fund needed services, and to more equitably distribute the cost of supporting OASIS work. http://www.oasis-open.org/join/categories.php ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Events 11-13 September OpenOffice.org Conference (OOoCon 2006) Lyon, France http://marketing.openoffice.org/ooocon2006/ 2-4 October AJAX World Conference & Exhibition 2006 Santa Clara, California http://www.ajaxworldexpo.com/ 11-12 October TMRA 2006 - Leveraging the Semantics Leipzig, Germany http://www.informatik.uni-leipzig.de/~tmra/ 19-20 October ITU-T and OASIS Workshop and Demonstration of Advances in ICT Standards for Public Warning Geneva, Switzerland http://www.oasis-open.org/events/ITU-T-OASISWorkshop2006/index.php 25-27 October OASIS Open Standards Sydney, Australia http://www.open-standards.com 2-3 November DITA Europe Conference 2006 Frankfurt, Germany http://www.infomanagementcenter.com/DITAeurope/index.htm 8-9 November OASIS Open Standards Day Germany Wiesbaden, Germany http://www.tekom.de/upload/alg/CfP%20OOSD.pdf 13-17 November UBL International 2006 Copenhagen, Denmark http://www.ublconference.com/ 28-29 November OASIS Adoption Forum London, UK http://www.oasis-open.org/events/adoptionforum2006/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- OASIS News is published in English, Japanese, and Korean.
