Subject: [provision] Security Joint Committee Charter
Folks The SJC is about to ratify a charter statement for the joint committee. The charter text is included below. There's nothing controversial in it. As the representative from our committee I have to vote to accept modify or reject this charter text by 9-3-2002. Please take a quick read and let me know if it gives you any pain. ================================ To promote the use of consistent terms Through consultation with, and the participation of member TC's, to encourage new and developing TC's to use consistent security terms and definitions in specification documentation. To promote re-use To provide the definition and identification of re-usable security related specification elements. Security related specification elements are defined as (but are not limited to) object models, use cases, extensible XML elements, cryptographic processes and deployment profiles. To champion an OASIS security standards model To champion the creation of a reference model that shows how OASIS security TC specifications are inter-related. This reference model shall define how OASIS security related specifications "fit together" and relate to other security relevant works at W3C, IETF, WS-I, ASN X9 etc. To provide consistent PR To provide a single point of contact for addressing security related enquiries at OASIS and in doing so to help organize and coordinate security related comment and PR from OASIS. To promote mutuality, operational independence & ethics The SJC will foster and maintain respect among OASIS security TCs and for them in the security community at large. The SJC will maintain a vendor neutral and vendor agnostic view in its support for diverse security technologies. The SJC will promote public safeguards and believes that security technologies should be used solely for legal, ethical, and nondiscriminatory purposes. The joint committee is committed to the highest standards of systems integrity and data security in order to deter identity theft, protect personal privacy, and ensure equal rights in all security applications. -------------------------------------------------------- Darran Rolls http://www.waveset.com Waveset Technologies Inc drolls@waveset.com (512) 657 8360 --------------------------------------------------------
