Motion for tomorrow's meeting (2) - Submission of SOA-RM Standard to ISO/IEC JTC1

[Peter F Brown <peter@peterfbrown.com>]

Draft Motion

In accordance with Section 1 of the external submission guidelines of the OASIS Liaison Policy, the OASIS SOA-RM TC requests that OASIS submit its SOA Reference Model v1.0, approved as an OASIS Standard, to SC38 of ISO/IEC JTC1 as a PAS submission.

Each of the applicable requirements of Section 1 has been satisfied. The SOA-RM TC deems that Paragraph 1(c), regarding a public interoperability demonstration requirement, is inapplicable to this submission, as the Reference Model is an abstract model and as such cannot create parsable markup or executable artifacts that could be demonstrated in an event under the OASIS Interop Demonstration Policy. Accordingly, the TC requests that this requirement be waived or deemed satisfied by the statements of use submitted at the time of its OASIS Standard ballot, which note its abstract nature and its use in system design, rather than technical implementations.

The SOA-RM Technical Committee resolves to ask the OASIS TC Administration to organize a Special Majority Vote to approve this request.
