The members of the OASIS XML Localisation Interchange File Format (XLIFF) TC [1] have requested that OASIS submit the following OASIS Standard:

XLIFF Version 2.0
OASIS Standard
05 August 2014

to ISO Technical Committee 37 [2] as a submission for approval as a proposed International Standard.

The OASIS Liaison Policy [3] requires that management approve or reject the Request as meeting the policy’s requirements; if it is accepted, the policy requires that the Request be posted for member review for 30 days, for comment on the proposed terms, before transmitting it to ISO.

The specification was approved as an OASIS Standard, and can be reviewed at the links listed here:

The OASIS TC’s Submission Request, which meets each of the applicable criteria of the Liaison Policy, can be found here:

The Request describes the proposed terms of submission and maintenance for the standards.

Member Review Period:

The member public review starts 19 January 2015 at 00:00 UTC and ends 17 February 2015 at 23:59 UTC.

This is an open invitation to OASIS members to comment on the proposed terms of submission, described in the Request. Comments may be submitted by any OASIS member to the TC by directing them to the oasis-member-discuss@lists.oasis-open.org mailing list. Members should not need to subscribe to the list as each member should be able to use it automatically. If you have a problem posting to it, let us know. Please direct any other questions to tc-administration@lists.oasis-open.org.
