OASIS and the OASIS OSLC Lifecycle Integration Core (OSLC Core) TC are pleased to announce that OSLC Query Version 3.0 is now available for public review and comment.

Information Technology enterprises are constantly looking for more efficient development processes. They want integration of their software or hardware development tools regardless of vendor, but this level of integration is challenging to achieve. In order to enable integration between various tools, Open Services for Lifecycle Collaboration (OSLC) seeks to define a sufficient supporting architecture that is loosely coupled, minimal, and standardized. It is based on World Wide Web and Linked Data principles, and provides a cohesive set of specifications that can enable products, services, and other distributed network resources to interoperate successfully.

OSLC Query provides a mechanism for a client to query or search for RDF resources that match a given criteria. The response to a successful query includes the RDF of a query result container that references the member resources found by the query, and optionally includes selected properties of each member resource.

OASIS is pleased to announce publication of “STIX/TAXII 2.0 Interoperability Test Document: Part 1 Version 1.1” and “STIX/TAXII 2.0 Interoperability Test Document: Part 2 Version 1.0”, Committee Notes from the members of the OASIS Cyber Threat Intelligence (CTI) TC [1].

These test documents provide detailed requirements on how producers of products within the threat intelligence ecosystem may demonstrate and self-certify that their software is interoperable with other systems implementing STIX/TAXII 2.0.

There are six personas detailed in Part 1 of the Interoperability Test Document, which focuses primarily on conformity with STIX 2.0. These are: Data Feed Provider (DFP), Threat Intelligence Platform (TIP), Threat Mitigation System (TMS), Threat Detection System (TDS), Security Incident and Event Management (SIEM), and Threat Intelligence Sink (TIS). Part 1 defines tests of the following test cases: indicator sharing, sighting sharing, versioning, data markings, custom objects and properties, and course of action sharing.

There are eight personas detailed in Part 2 of the Interoperability Test Document. These include the six listed for Part 1, plus TAXII Feed (TXF) and TAXII Server (TXS). Part 2 defines tests of the following test cases: common connection, basic data sharing, and basic threat intelligence collaboration.

OASIS and the OASIS Cyber Threat Intelligence TC are pleased to announce that TAXII™ Version 2.1 is now available for public review and comment.

Trusted Automated Exchange of Intelligence Information (TAXII) is an application layer protocol used to exchange cyber threat intelligence (CTI) over HTTPS. It enables organizations to share CTI by defining an API that aligns with common sharing models.

TAXII is specifically designed to support the exchange of CTI represented in STIX. As such, the examples and some features in the specification are intended to align with STIX. This does not mean TAXII cannot be used to share data in other formats; it is designed for STIX, but is not limited to STIX.

OASIS is pleased to announce that “XACML REST Profile Version 1.1” and “JSON Profile of XACML 3.0 Version 1.1” from the OASIS eXtensible Access Control Markup Language (XACML) TC have been approved as OASIS Committee Specifications.

XACML is an OASIS Standard which describes both a policy language and an access control decision request/response language (both defined in XML). The policy language is used to describe general access control requirements, and has standard extension points for defining new functions, data types, combining logic, etc. The request/response language lets you form a query to ask whether or not a given action should be allowed, and interpret the result. XACML v3.0 is an international standard (ITU-T X.1144), approved by the International Telecommunications Union – Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T).

The REST Profile specification defines a profile for the use of XACML in a RESTful architecture.

The JSON profile proposes a standardized interface between a policy enforcement point and a policy decision point using JSON, leveraging the decision request and response structure specified in the core XACML standard.

These Committee Specifications are OASIS deliverables, completed and approved by the TC and fully ready for testing and implementation.

We are pleased to announce that Electronic Court Filing Version 5.0 from the LegalXML Electronic Court Filing TC [1] is now available for public review and comment. This is the third public review for ECF v5.0.

ECF defines a technical architecture and a set of components, operations and message structures for an electronic court filing system, and sets forth rules governing its implementation. Version 5.0 provides a number of enhancements including:
– Support for scheduling of court hearings using WS-Calendar
– Limited electronic service of process to process servers and registered agents
– New Document Stamp and operations support retrieval of case information required for stamping
– New Court Policy MDE to better support electronic filing systems with multiple FilingReview MDEs
– Support for cancellation of filings
– Conformance with the 4.0 version of the National Information Exchange Model (NIEM), a national standard for information sharing, new NIEM domains including Biometrics and Human Services
– Conformance with the NIEM Code Lists specification version 1.0 and the representation of all ECF code lists in Genericode format.
– Conformance with the 2.2 version of the Universal Business Language (UBL).
– Better management of extensions through NIEM augmentations.
– Deprecated content references (e.g. referring to related entities with common identifiers) in favor or element references (e.g. referring to related elements with structures:ref attributes) as described in Reference Rules.
– Clarifications and improvements throughout the specification based on feedback from implementers of the ECF 4.0 and 4.01 specifications.

Version 5.0 does not assume that prior versions will be deprecated. However, it is not backward-compatible and applications using the ECF 3.0, 3.01 and 3.1, 4.0 and 4.01 specifications will not interoperate successfully with applications using this version.

OASIS is pleased to announce the publication of “Lightweight DITA: An Introduction,” a Committee Note from the members of the OASIS Darwin Information Typing Architecture (DITA) TC [1].

Lightweight DITA (LwDITA) is a simplified version of the Darwin Information Typing Architecture (DITA). In comparison to DITA 1.3, it has a smaller element type and attribute set, stricter content models, and a reduced feature set. It also defines mappings between XML, HTML5, and Markdown so that authors can collaborate and publish across different markup languages.

LwDITA is a work in progress. The Committee Note outlines the current plans in order to gain design clarity and receive feedback from potential users. Details may well change between the publication of this CN and release of Lightweight DITA as an OASIS specification.

OASIS and the OASIS LegalDocumentML (LegalDocML) TC [1] are pleased to announce that Akoma Ntoso Naming Convention Version 1.0 is now available for public review and comment.

For governments, makers of legal information systems, legal publishers and others in governmental and legal fields, Akoma Ntoso provides a framework for creating human and machine-readable documents such as legislation, debate records, minutes, judgments, etc. In doing so, it helps build a strong foundation for “open access” to government information.

This specification provides the naming convention for defining IRIs and ids related to the Akoma Ntoso XML standard. Identifiers are the main way Akoma Ntoso identifies fragments and parts of the document in an unambiguous form. Because any substructure in a legal document may become a destination, identifiers are useful for all parts of a document.

Akoma Ntoso Naming Convention Version 1.0 has been approved as a Candidate OASIS Standard (COS) [2]. The COS now enters a 60-day public review period in preparation for a member ballot to consider its approval as an OASIS Standard.

The TC has received 3 Statements of Use from the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), Xcential Corporation, and CIRSFID [3].

The candidate specification and related files are available here:

The OASIS Cross-Enterprise Security and Privacy Authorization (XSPA) TC members [1] have produced an updated Committee Specification Draft (CSD) and submitted this specification for 15-day public review:

Cross-Enterprise Security and Privacy Authorization (XSPA) Profile of SAML v2.0 for Healthcare Version 2.0
Committee Specification Draft 03 / Public Review Draft 03
26 November 2018

What is the XSPA Profile of SAML and why is it important?

The XSPA profile defines a set of SAML attributes and corresponding vocabularies for healthcare information exchange applications.

The core use-cases are the cross-enterprise exchange of protected data objects from a Service Provider (SP) to a Service Consumer (SC). In the scenarios, the request includes SAML attribute assertions that vouch for the identity of the requesting Principal and other attributes that are consequential in making the access control decision at the SP’s side.

In addition to the main use-cases, the attributes name and values can be used in some other scenarios, such as including SAML Assertions to vouch for some of SP’s organizational attributes, or carrying the identity attributes of the signer of a data object.

Public Review Period:

The public review starts 04 December 2018 at 00:00 UTC and ends 18 December 2018 at 11:59 UTC. The specification was previously submitted for public review [2].

This is an open invitation to comment. OASIS solicits feedback from potential users, developers and others, whether OASIS members or not, for the sake of improving the interoperability and quality of its technical work.

OASIS is pleased to announce that The DocBook Schema Version 5.0.1 from the OASIS DocBook TC [1] has been approved as an OASIS Committee Specification.

DocBook is widely used in computer hardware and software documentation in both commercial and Open Source environments. Broadly, this includes both print and online tutorial and reference documentation as well as online help, user guides, exercises and other ancillary forms of documentation.

The DocBook Version 5.0 schema was delivered in 2009 using the RelaxNG schema language with additional constraints specified in Schematron. The Schematron rules changed after DocBook 5.0 was released, so some Schematron tools do not work with DocBook 5.0. The DocBook 5.0.1 specification is updated with the new Schematron rules so users can continue using DocBook 5.0 if they need to use newer Schematron tools.

This Committee Specification is an OASIS deliverable, completed and approved by the TC and fully ready for testing and implementation.

The prose specifications and related files are available here:

OASIS and the OASIS Message Queuing Telemetry Transport (MQTT) TC [1] are pleased to announce that MQTT Version 5.0 has been approved as a Candidate OASIS Standard (COS) [2]. The COS now enters a 60-day public review period in preparation for a member ballot to consider its approval as an OASIS Standard.

MQTT is a client/server publish/subscribe messaging transport protocol. It is lightweight, open, simple, and designed to be easy to implement. These characteristics make it ideal for use in many situations, including constrained environments such as for communication in Machine to Machine (M2M) and Internet of Things (IoT) contexts where a small code footprint is required and/or network bandwidth is at a premium.

The protocol runs over TCP/IP, or over other network protocols that provide ordered, lossless, bi-directional connections.

The TC received 4 Statements of Use from HiveMQ, IBM, the Eclipse Paho Project, and VerneMQ [3].

OASIS is pleased to announce that OSLC Architecture Management Version 2.1 from the OASIS OSLC Lifecycle Integration Domains TC has been approved as an OASIS Committee Specification.

For anyone developing complex systems and software, managing change and configurations throughout the development lifecycle can be difficult. This is especially true in heterogeneous environments that include homegrown tools, open source projects, and commercial tools from different vendors. Organizations that need to design, develop, deliver, and evolve a portfolio of products can benefit from an open technical architecture that is minimalist, loosely coupled, and standardized.

The OSLC (Open Services for Lifecycle Collaboration) initiative applies Linked Data principles, such as those defined in the W3C Linked Data Platform (LDP), to create a cohesive set of specifications that can enable products, services, and other distributed network resources to interoperate successfully.

The Architecture Management specification defines the OSLC Architecture Management domain, a RESTful web services interface for the management of architectural resources and relationships between those and related resources such as product change requests, activities, tasks, requirements or test cases. To support these scenarios, this specification defines a set of HTTP-based RESTful interfaces in terms of HTTP methods: GET, POST, PUT and DELETE, as well as HTTP response codes, content type handling and resource formats.

This Committee Specification is an OASIS deliverable, completed and approved by the TC and fully ready for testing and implementation.

The prose specifications and related files are available here:
