OASIS News 27 February 2007 Welcome to OASIS News, a bi-weekly update of announcements, accomplishments, and activities for the international standards consortium. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- HEADLINES: * Bob Sutor to Deliver Keynote at OASIS Symposium * Voting for WS-Trust and WS-SecureConversation Closes Soon * OASIS Entity Resolution TC Completes Work * Webinars Explore Advantages of Using WS-BPEL to Define SOA Business Processes * Upcoming Public Review Deadlines * Events 2007 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Bob Sutor to Deliver Keynote at OASIS Symposium Outspoken advocate for open standards and open source, Bob Sutor, Ph.D., will provide the keynote address for the annual OASIS Symposium, "eBusiness and Open Standards: Understanding the Facts, Fiction, and Future." Dr. Sutor, Vice President of Standards and Open Source at IBM, previously served on the OASIS Board of Directors and was recently named an "Open Source VIP" by Computer Business Review. The OASIS Symposium will be held 15-18 April 2007 in San Diego, California. The early-bird discount for registration ends 19 March. Exhibit and sponsorship opportunities are still available. Contact symposium2007@oasis-open.org for details. http://www.oasis-open.org/events/symposium/2007/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Voting for WS-Trust and WS-SecureConversation Closes Soon Members are encouraged to cast ballots on two candidate OASIS Standards, WS-Trust 1.3 and WS-SecureConversation v1.3. Produced by the OASIS Web Service Secure Exchange (WS-SX) TC, WS-Trust and WS-SecureConversation define extensions that build on the WS-Security OASIS Standard to provide a framework for requesting and issuing security tokens and to broker trust relationships. Balloting on both specifications closes 28 Feb. http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/ws-sx/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- OASIS Entity Resolution TC Completes Work A TC with connections reaching back to OASIS' early years as SGML Open has completed its work and is now closed. The OASIS Entity Resolution TC created an XML version of the Entity Management catalog specification (OASIS Technical Resolution 9401:1997). The XML Catalog Specification 1.1 became an OASIS Standard on 1 October 2005 and has since been implemented in various products and platforms. OASIS thanks the TC participants for their contributions and dedication to this effort. Their work and mail list archives will remain publicly accessible. http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/entity/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Webinars Explore Advantages of Using WS-BPEL to Define SOA Business Processes OASIS members present two free webinars on the technology and business value offered by WS-BPEL. "The Business Value of WS-BPEL for Business Analysts and Managers" on 12 March and "WS-BPEL Technical Overview for Developers and Architects" on 13 March will examine key features and benefits of WS-BPEL, how it adds to existing processes, where it fits with other Web services standards, and more.
