The XSPA Profile of the eXtensible Access Control Markup Language (XACML) supports cross-enterprise security and privacy authorization. Both public reviews end 13 Mar. http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/tc-announce/200901/msg00011.html http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/tc-announce/200901/msg00012.html ------------------------------------------------------------------- OpenDocument TC approves ODF 1.0 Errata 01 OpenDocument is an open, XML-based file format for office applications.

In a two-part blog, Laurent talks about how open standards will help us find our way to the smartgrid. http://blogs.oasis-open.org/lliscia ------------------------------------------------------------------- Norbert Mikula, former OASIS Board director, dies at 37 OASIS expresses deepest sympathies to the family of Norbert Mikula, an active contributor to the XML community since it began. In 1996, when Jon Bosak claimed that XML should be easy enough for a CS grad student to write a parser in three weeks, Norbert proved him right. Norbert went on to become CTO of DataChannel, and then to advance standards at Intel, and most recently, Microsoft. He will be fondly remembered by all the OASIS staff and the many members who were privileged to collaborate with him. http://www.legacy.com/SeattleTimes/DeathNotices.asp?Page=LifeStory&PersonId=122901048 ------------------------------------------------------------------- Important dates: 19 Jan Comment period for draft ICOM TC charter closes http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/tc-announce/200901/msg00009.html 21 Jan Nomination period for eGov Member Section Steering Committee closes http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/announce/200901/msg00003.html 22 Jan Balloting for LegalXML Steering Committee ends http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/announce/200901/msg00001.html 31 Jan OASIS Standard ballots for WS-RX, WS-TX, and WS-SX specs close http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/members/200901/msg00000.html 7 Feb Reference Ontology for Semantic SOA 1.0 public review ends http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/tc-announce/200812/msg00001.html 12 Feb WS-Federation 1.2 public review ends http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/tc-announce/200901/msg00013.html 19 Feb OASIS eGov workshop on Public Finance (Brussels) http://events.oasis-open.org/home/egov-brussels-workshop/2009 13 Mar Public reviews end for XSPA Profiles of SAML and XACML http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/tc-announce/200901/msg00011.html http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/tc-announce/200901/msg00012.html ------------------------------------------------------------------- OASIS News is published in English, Chinese, Italian, and Korean.
