OASIS TC members act like extra QA resources for one another. We put our products together and shake out incompatibility issues. Finding those before we ship is invaluable.
One thing that makes OASIS stand out is its openness. It’s not just that the standards are open and freely available in perpetuity, but also that the whole process is open.
OASIS is driven by the needs on the ground of the business community, governments, and users. It can move with great speed and agility. These are not pie-in-the-sky standards ideas, they’re very practical.
We like OASIS because it operates in a neutral environment, not dominated by any particular vendors. It has a reputation for being on the leading edge of new ideas and better processes. Participation for us has been a win-win-win.
