[Z3950][Fwd: [wsrp] New standards proposal for search]

["Chiusano Joseph" <chiusano_joseph@bah.com>]

Here is a recent posting to the OASIS Web Services for Remote Portals
(WSRP) TC list for a proposed Search Specification that is "an API for
composing and federating search queries to a set of search providers,
and aggregating returned results.". It references Z39.50.

I immediately noted potential connections to our proposed E-Gov Search
Service, and ebXML Registry. I would be happy to provide feedback to the
WSRP TC for anyone that wishes.

Thanks,
Joe

Hi all,

On behalf of Plumtree I am proposing a new JSR specification for a
Search Specification to the JCP.  We've completed a final draft of the
proposal and I'm looking to build the initial expert group from
interested people in the standards community.  It would be great to have
companies and members from the WSRP and JSR 168 efforts involved in this
new effort.  I've attached the proposal for your review.  If you are
interested in joining the expert group or otherwise participating please
send me an email.   I will be submitting the proposal early next week
with the initial Expert Group.  

Thanks, <<Search _vision-JSR format.doc>>
