Subject: SPML Committee Specification for OASIS review
|
Karl
I am pleased to say that earlier this week the PS-TC voted to adopt draft (16) specification to committee specification status and we are therefore ready to move onto the OASIS review period. In accordance with TC process, I would like to provide you with the following information for the OASIS Admin review process.
Summary of specification
In late 2001, the OASIS Provisioning Services Technical
Committee (PSTC) was formed to define an XML-based framework for exchanging
user, resource, and service provisioning information. The resulting specification
defines the concepts, operations deployment and XML schema for an XML based
request and response protocol for provisioning. This specification
consists of three documents as follows:
These three documents together form the SPML V1.0 specification and are available at [1], [2] and [3] respectively.

Certification of use in line with OASIS IPR policy
So far, the following three vendors have certified their use of the SPML V1.0 specification in accordance with the OASIS IPR policy. I believe other members will want to go on record with the same assertion; the following three meets the TC process requirement:
