Statements of Use

[Hal Lockhart <hal.lockhart@oracle.com>]

XACML 3.0 Core is now CS02. We need those who can, to post Statements of Use as a condition of submission for OASIS Standard. 

The TC Process Section 1 says:

"Statement of Use", with respect to a Committee Specification, is a written statement that a party has successfully used or implemented that specification in accordance with all or some of its conformance clauses specified in Section 2.18, identifying those clauses that apply, and stating whether its use included the interoperation of multiple independent implementations. The Statement of Use must be made to a specific version of the Committee Specification and must include the Specification's approval date. The party may be an OASIS Member or a non-member. In case of a non-member, the Statement of Use must be submitted on the TC comment-list. A TC may require a Statement of Use to include hyperlinks to documents, files or demonstration transcripts that enable TC members to evaluate the implementation or usage. A Statement of Use submitted to the TC must be approved by TC resolution as an acceptable Statement of Use with respect to the Committee Specification. A party can only issue one Statement of Use for a given specification. When issued by an OASIS Organizational Member, a Statement of Use must be endorsed by the Organizational Member's Primary Representative.

Based on that, I suggest you make a statement like this:

<Organization> has successfully <used | implemented> OASIS eXtensible Access Control Markup Language (XACML) Version 3.0, Committee Specification 02 approved August 8, 2012, in accordance with the conformance clauses in Section 10 including all the mandatory features. This <did | did not> include interoperation with independent implementations.


This must be approved by your organizational representative. If the rep is a TC member, they can post it to the list. Otherwise, they should email it to you and you can forward it to the list.
