OASIS would like to submit our specs for ISO Standardization. In order 
to do so the
submitted version must be approved as an OASIS standard. Version 2.5 
will not be ready
for OASIS standardization for a few months. Version 2.0 is an approved 
standard but
version 2.1 fixes some important bugs.

As a tactical move we are submitting version 2.1 for OASIS 
standardization so that it can be
submitted for ISO Standardization.
