Subject: [tc-announce] ebXML RS Committee Specification for consideration asOASIS Standard
OASIS members: The OASIS ebXML Registry TC has submitted OASIS/ebXML Registry Services Specification (RS) v2.0, which is an approved Committee Specification, for review and consideration for approval by OASIS members to become an OASIS Standard. In accordance with Section 2 of the OASIS Technical Process (see http://oasis-open.org/committees/process.shtml) OASIS members have one calender quarter to review this submission then 30 days for voting. I will therefore call for a vote on 1 April 2002; each OASIS member organization will have a single vote on the ballot. [Note that there are two ebXML Registry specifications being submitted to OASIS members: RIM and RS. While they are related to each other they will be balloted separately.] The OASIS TC has supplied the following required items for OASIS members to review: (a) a formal specification that is a valid member of its type The OASIS/ebXML Registry Services Specification, v2.0, December 5, 2001 can be found at http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/regrep/documents/2.0/specs/ebrs.pdf The specification also includes the following ancillary documents, which are referenced by the appendices of the Registry Services Specification. Appendix A references: Registry.wsdl http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/regrep/documents/2.0/services/Regis try.wsdl RegistrySOAPBinding.wsdl http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/regrep/documents/2.0/services/Regis trySOAPBinding.wsdl Appendix B references: rim.xsd version http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/regrep/documents/2.0/schema/rim.xsd query.xsd version http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/regrep/documents/2.0/schema/query.x sd rs.xsd version http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/regrep/documents/2.0/schema/rs.xsd Appendix D references: database.sql version 1.1 http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/regrep/documents/2.0/sql/database.s ql storedProcedures.sql version 1.1 http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/regrep/documents/2.0/sql/storedProc edures.sql (b) appropriate documentation for the specification The specification is self documenting; therefor no additional documentation is required. (c) a clear English-language summary of the specification The ebXML Registry provides a stable store where information submitted by a Submitting Organization is made persistent. Such information is used to facilitate ebXML Business to Business partnerships and transactions. Submitted content includes but is not limited to XML schema and documents, process descriptions, ebXML Core Components, context descriptions, UML models, information about organizations, and software components. Metadata, used to describe the stored content, is defined in a companion document, OASIS/ebXML Registry Information Model, V2.0. the Registry Information Model. The interface to the Registry is defined the OASIS/ebXML Registry Services Specfication, V2.0. The Registry Services Specification provides a set of services that define the communication messages between a registry server and its client. These services provide the support for the following functionality: * movement through the life-cycle of a registered object (e.g., submit, update, remove, depracate an object); * the ability to query the metadata (and combinations) of object(s) * the ability to manage the security policy of an object * the definition of these services as an abstract web services in WSDL. (d) certification by at least three OASIS member organizations that they are successfully using the specification See the following mail messages: Information Technology Laboratory/National Institute of Standards and Technology (US) http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/regrep/200112/msg00041.html Sterling Commerce http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/regrep/200112/msg00034.html Sun Microsystems http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/regrep/200111/msg00119.html XMLGlobal http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/regrep/200112/msg00044.html (e) an account of or pointer to votes and comments received in any earlier attempts to standardize substantially the same specification, together with the originating TC's response to each comment This specification has not previously been submitted to OASIS membership, so there are no previous votes or comments to respond to. (f) a pointer to the publicly visible comments archive for the originating TC The archives of the TC mail list are available at http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/regrep/ TC meeting minutes are available on the TC's web page at http://oasis-open.org/committees/regrep/ To date, no comments have been received through the public comment list for the Regitry TC; however, some comments have been received through the ebXML-dev mailing list which is archived at http://lists.ebxml.org/archives/ebxml-dev/ (g) a statement from the chair of the TC certifying that all members of the TC have been provided with a copy of the OASIS IPR policy. From Lisa Carnahan: "The TC chair certifies that all members have been provided with a copy of the OASIS IPR policy. The mail message found at http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/regrep/200111/msg00087.html states that all TC members must be made aware of the OASIS IPR policy and directs them to the on-line version of the policy." </karl> ================================================================= Karl F.
