Subject: RE: [ws-tx] Synchronizing references across the WS-RX/SX/TX specifications
Guys - Thanks very much for your suggestion. As co-chair of WS-TX I think it's a great idea to ensure that our normative references are up to date and accurate. We (the TC) understands the requirement for specification maintenance and I am sure that the TC will be glad to review the proposal and make any changes that seem appropriate and sensible. Thanks again, Eric +1 781 902 8366 fax: +1 781 902 8009 blog: http://blogs.iona.com/newcomer Making Software Work Together (TM) -----Original Message----- From: Jeff Mischkinsky [mailto:jeff.mischkinsky@oracle.com] Sent: Monday, April 02, 2007 11:41 AM To: ws-tx@lists.oasis-open.org Subject: [ws-tx] Synchronizing references across the WS-RX/SX/TX specifications To the Members of the WS-RX, WS-SX, and WS-TX Technical Committees, Recently many of the WS-* specifications in the OASIS WS-RX, WS-SX and WS-TX Technical Committees have reached, or are close to reaching, the significant milestone of becoming OASIS standards. As these specifications are being completed at different times and in different committees some of their normative references are not synchronized. Some of these specifications reference the W3C submission of WS-Policy 1.2. Some of these specifications reference both the WS-Policy 1.2 submission and WS-Policy 1.5 which is still in progress at the W3C. Some of these specifications reference final OASIS specifications and others reference the contributed drafts. We believe that it would be beneficial to the community to have the same references in a synchronized set of the RX, SX, and TX specifications. Having a consistent set of synchronized references across all of these specifications could enhance eventual interop profiling, provide a more consistent experience across implementations and provide a basis for subsequent specifications. We propose that after the current specifications in the OASIS WS-RX, WS- SX and WS-TX TCs have reached OASIS Standard status and after W3C WS- Policy 1.5 is a W3C Recommendation that the references in the RX, SX, and TX specifications should be updated to create a new synchronized set of standardized versions of the RX, SX and TX specifications. We would like to see these updated references point to only the WS- Policy W3C Recommendation. We recommend the TCs' charters should be clarified to reflect this direction.
