Subject: RE: [uddi-spec] RE: OASIS UDDI TC Submission of UDDI V2 as an OASISStandard
Apparently that resolution was not compliant with the OASIS process - our agreement alone is not sufficient criteria for submission. Indeed the lack of publicly solicited review would appear to bypass an important element of the principle of openness advocated by OASIS and supposedly embodied in the process. I cannot disagree with Mr. Best's observation that the committee failed to follow specified rules. Perhaps UDDI Spec TC Process document needs to be reviewed to identify potential impact and to account for it, so we do not face a similar situation again. The only reason for exception to the process OASIS might be in a position to find acceptable is that public availability of UDDI V2 documents was PR-ed all over news media and trade publications. Public comment was provided through means available at the time (public mailing lists). This was done outside the framework of the OASIS process, but nonetheless it can be argued that the TC fulfilled the principles and the intent of the OASIS process by acting "in the spirit" of the process prior to UDDI's transition to OASIS.
