*** See TOSCA-7 (Alternate encodings Service Templates, e.g., YAML/JSON)
Resources
** See explanation of OASIS document types and typical cadence
** Current "base" for v1.1 XML Spec and Simple Profile is the v1.0 OASIS Standard documents (public)

** TOSCA-108: Catch-all for All Editorial Suggestions That Do NOT Change Semantics, e.g., spelling, grammar, readability (use for all v1.1 documents)
