Invitation to comment on OSLC Configuration Management V1.0 and OSLC Tracked Resource Set V3.0 before call for consent as OASIS Standard – ends June 27th

Two Project Specifications from Open Services for Lifecycle Collaboration Open Project take next step towards OASIS Standard

OASIS and the Open Services for Lifecycle Collaboration Open Project [1] are pleased to announce that OSLC Configuration Management V1.0 PS01 and OSLC Tracked Resource Set V3.0 PS02 are now available for public review and comment.

Managing change and configuration in a complex systems development lifecycle is very difficult, especially in heterogeneous environments that include homegrown tools, open source projects, and commercial tools from different vendors. The OSLC initiative applies World Wide Web and Linked Data principles to enable interoperation of change, configuration, and asset management processes across a product’s entire application and product lifecycle.

Configuration Management Version 1.0 defines an RDF vocabulary and a set of REST APIs for managing versions and configurations of linked data resources from multiple domains.

Tracked Resource Set Version 3.0 allows a server to expose a set of resources in a way that allows clients to discover them, track additions to and removals from the set, and track state changes to the resources in the set. The protocol is suitable for dealing with sets containing a large number of resources, as well as highly active resource sets that undergo continual change.

Configuration Management received 3 Statements of Use from MID, SodiusWillert, and IBM.

Tracked Resource Set received 3 Statements of Use from IBM, KTH Royal Institute of Technology, and SodiusWillert [3].
