Subject: OASIS Step-up Authentication spec to ITU-T


We understand that the Trust Elevation TC, consistent with its prior informative notices to ITU-T SG17, is interested in submitting its Authentication Step-Up Protocol and Metadata v1.0, which has been approved as an OASIS Standard:

 

https://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/tc-announce/201705/msg00005.html

 

The process for submitting an OASIS Standard to an external SDO is described in our Liaison Policy, and summarized in this message.  For the full rules, see:

 

https://www.oasis-open.org/policies-guidelines/liaison#submitwork

 

Written submission requests are prepared, to use as the official proposal subject to the public review period for members (described below), so the best first step is to draft that submission request, and approve it in the TC’s submission ballot (also described below).   Your TC’s intent already is clear from the prior Liaison Statements sent to ITU-T, so the default submissions terms that we've used in the past with ITU should work well here.  We’re happy to supply a draft request for you, or you may draft one.  (The form of request is defined in paragraph 2 of the rules.) 


Here are two recent successful examples from other TCs (although these happened to be submissions to JTC 1 rather than ITU):

https://www.oasis-open.org/committees/download.php/53050/Submission%20request%20for%20international%20standardization.docx (for OData)

 

The TC then asks TC Admin to start a Special Majority Vote ballot, to request that its OASIS Standard be submitted to an external SDO.   (This is clause 1(c)(i)(B) of the rules.)   Upon its successful conclusion, OASIS staff has 15 days to confirm the approved written submission request, and start a public notice period to OASIS members.  Here are examples of that OASIS member review notice:

 

https://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/tc-announce/201501/msg00004.html


https://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/members/201501/msg00004.html#14af499b19f83413_mctoc3

 

That comment period remains open for 30 days, after which management sends the submission to ITU (or would, if needed, work with the TC to fix any major flaws noted in the review period).

 

During that review period, we also will work with the TC leadership to draft the cover letter to ITU (sometimes called an “explanatory report”) that will accompany the submission, and serves as a general introduction for the benefit of ITU parties reviewing the submission.

 

Please feel free to contact either Chet Ensign or me with any questions.  We’ll also be happy to join your scheduled TC meeting on July 20th for questions, if you like.  However, I believe a special majority ballot also could be initiated earlier, if the chairs wish to initiate one with Chet based on an e-mail confirmation by the TC.
