Subject: RE: [xtm-wg] TopicMaps.Org & OASIS
I too believe the move to OASIS is an excellent way forward.

In this spirit, >please address any questions or concerns to the entire list. I would like to add my voice to Eric's and support this move to OASIS. It is far more than just "the only alternative" -- it is the perfect fit, as far as I can see. OASIS will help us build the topic map community, market the concepts, ensure conformance, and provide a forum for vertical market applications. It will be an ideal complement to the core standards development work that will continue inside ISO (under the guidance of the editors, Steve, Michel, and Martin) with the data model, processing models, TMQL, and Topic Map Constraint Language. I'm very interested in hearing from the "lurkers": Who among you are already members of OASIS and would be prepared to support the establishment of a member section? Which of you that are not members of OASIS would seriously consider joining if it were to provide a forum for topic maps? Please stand up and be counted. OASIS needs to know the level of interest if they are to accept us as a member section.
