Subject: [Fwd: WS-Reliability press release]
I forward this mail from Carol: Each member has an opportunity to send endorsement quotes for a press release, however this should only be done after the OASIS release.

Tom, When Karl's Call for Vote goes out, I'll send an announcement to the OASIS PR Group and the OASIS WSRM TC, notifying members that a press release is being prepared in anticipation of WS-Reliability being approved as an OASIS Standard. The release will list all the OASIS Sponsor members who are current members of the OASIS WSRM TC, as well as non-profit orgs that have endorsed the work. These companies and orgs will have a chance to prepare and send me quotes, should they so desire. Sponsor members of OASIS who are not members of the OASIS WSRM TC may also send WS-Reliability endorsement quotes, but they will not be named as TC members. Our goal is to be ready to drop the press release as soon as the positive results of the vote are announced. We can set the exact date of the release when the CfV goes out, but we need to be sure you (or your TC's designated spokespersons) are available to field press calls that day. Any members of the OASIS WSRM TC that would like to issue their own press releases and/or speak to the press in support of WS-Reliability are certainly welcome to do so. We ask only that they do not do this in advance of the OASIS release. Looking forward to working on this, Carol -----Original Message----- From: Karl F. Best [mailto:karl.best@oasis-open.org] Sent: Thursday, September 30, 2004 8:59 AM To: members@lists.oasis-open.org; tc-announce@lists.oasis-open.org Subject: [members] WS-Reliability specification submitted for OASIS Standard OASIS members: The OASIS Web Services Reliable Messaging (WSRM) TC has submitted the WS-Reliability v1.1 specification, which is an approved Committee Draft, for review and consideration for approval by OASIS members to become an OASIS Standard. The TC's submission is attached below. In accordance with the OASIS Technical Committee Process, the specification has already gone through a 30 day public review period. OASIS members now have until the 15th of the month to familiarize themselves with the submission. OASIS members should give their input on this question to the voting representative of their organization. By the 16th of the month I will send out a Call For Vote to the voting representatives of the OASIS member organizations, who will have until the end of the month to cast their ballots on whether this Committee Draft should be approved as an OASIS Standard. The normative TC Process for approval of Committee Drafts as OASIS Standards is found at http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/process.php#standard Any statements related to the IPR of this specification are posted at http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/wsrm/ipr.php -Karl ================================================================= Karl F. Best Vice President, OASIS office +1 978.667.5115 x206 mobile +1 978.761.1648 karl.best@oasis-open.org http://www.oasis-open.org 1. A formal specification that is a valid member of its type, together with appropriate documentation for the specification, both of which must be written using approved OASIS templates; The zip file at http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/download.php/9330/WS-Reliability-CD1.08 6.zip contains the following five files: WS-Reliability-CD1.086.pdf WS-Reliability version 1.1, CD 1.086 ws-reliability-1.1.xsd Ws-Reliability schema reference-1.1.xsd Reference type schema fnp-1.1.xsd Features and Properties schema wsrmfp-1.1.xsd wsrm features and properties schema 2. A clear English-language summary of the specification; The WS-Reliabilty specification, version 1.1, specifies a transport-independent, SOAP based protocol for the reliable delivery of messages. Reliable message delivery may be critical to some applications using Web Services. SOAP over HTTP [RFC2616] is not sufficient when an application-level messaging protocol must also guarantee some level of reliability and security. This specification defines reliability in the context of current Web Services standards. The WS Reliability specification provides the following reliability features: - Guaranteed message delivery, or At-Least-Once delivery semantics. - Guaranteed message duplicate elimination, or "At-Most-Once" delivery semantics. - Guaranteed message delivery and duplicate elimination, or "Exactly-Once" delivery semantics. - Guaranteed message ordering for delivery within a group of (sequential) messages. The WS-Reliabilty specification uses SOAP 1.1 or 1.2 Part 1. It may be used with other transport protocols/bindings besides HTTP. 3. A statement regarding the relationship of this specification to similar work of other OASIS TCs or other standards developing organizations; This specification has been designed to be used in combination with other complementary protocols, and has built upon previous experiences from the ebXML Message Service [ebMS].) Both WS-Reliability and ebMS have same messaging reliability contracts as objectives: guaranteed delivery, no duplicate delivery, ordered delivery, and combinations of these. However, WS-Reliability has improved on scalability and performance by generalizing the use of sequence numbers, and can accommodate different security and access conditions on each party, as this is more frequently the case with a Web service and its clients, compared to more symmetrical access conditions in messaging. The reliability contract is more "application-oriented" in WS-R, where acknowledgment is on final delivery, in contrast to "on receipt" by the message handler in ebMS. 4. Certification by at least three OASIS member organizations that they are successfully using the specification consistently with the OASIS IPR Policy; The chair has received statements from the following TC member organizations.

A statement from the chair of the TC certifying that all members of the TC have been provided with a copy of the OASIS IPR Policy; The TC chair certifies that all members have been reminded to read the IPR statement on numerous occasions and also in an e-mail "Call for IPR disclosure regarding ws-Reliability spec" at: http://www.oasis-open.org/archives/wsrm/200405/msg00022.html 10. Optionally, a pointer to any minority reports submitted by one or more TC members who did not vote in favor of approving the Committee Draft, or certification by the chair that no minority reports exist. No minority reports have been submitted to the chair as of this writing.
