Ballots for four PKCS #11 public key cryptography specifications are now underway and will close 14 Apr. PKCS #11 employs cryptographic tokens to control authentication information (personal identity, cryptographic keys, certificates, digital signatures, biometric data). The specifications were developed by representatives of Sponsors, Cryptsoft, Dell, EMC, Fornetix, Futurex, Oracle, Red Hat, SafeNet, Symantec, Thales e-Security, VMware, Vormetric, and others. All organizational members of OASIS are encouraged to vote on the PKCS #11 ballots; those who wish to discuss the ballot may do so through oasis-member-discuss@lists.oasis-open.org.

UBL Naming and Design Rules 3.0 prescribes a set of naming and design rules used to create XML document model validation artefacts (W3C XSD schemas and OASIS Context/value association files) associated with abstract information bundles formally described using the ISO/TS 15000-5:2005 Core Component Technical Specification. This public review ends 15 Apr.
DocBook 5.1 is a general purpose schema well suited to books and papers about computer hardware and software (though it is by no means limited to these applications). Version 5.1 introduces assemblies for topic-oriented authoring and addresses a selection of bugs and feature requests. The public review ends 21 Apr.
Business Document Envelope (BDE) 1.0 idefines a business-oriented artefact enveloping a payload of one or more documents or artefacts with supplemental semantic information about the collection of payloads as a whole. This is distinct from any transport-layer infrastructure envelope that may be required to propagate documents from one system to another. The public review ends 25 Apr.
Transformational Government Framework (TGF) e-Health Profile 2.0 contains detailed information and guidance on using TGF and other OASIS standards to support delivery of e-Health services provided in the home or in the community. The public review ends 1 May.
Emergency Data Exchange Language (EDXL) Hospital AVailability Exchange (HAVE) 2.0 is an XML messaging standard that supports information sharing about facility services, bed counts, operations, capacities, and resource needs so first responders, emergency managers, hospitals, care facilities, and the health community can provide one another with a coherent view of the health system. The public review ends 15 May.

Along with Cryptosense, Cryptsoft, Feitian, and Oracle, Utimaco will show how PKCS #11 is used for interacting with cryptographic tokens and hardware security modules. The RSA event will also feature a KMIP Interop with Cryptsoft, Dell, Fornetix, HP, IBM, P6R, Thales e-Security, and Vormetric. Reserve a free pass for the 20-24 April expo in San Francisco by using the code X5EOASIS when registering.
