GLiNTECH Joins the Global E-Business Standards Consortium – OASIS

Sydney, 8 August 2005 - GLiNTECH is pleased to announce it has joined the global e-business standards consortium - OASIS. As a Contributing Member, GLiNTECH will be an active participant in various developing technical committees, namely areas involved in Web Services and Service-Oriented Architecture standardisation.

OASIS (Organisation for the Advancement of Structured Information Standards) is a not-for-profit, international consortium that drives the development, convergence, and adoption of e-business standards. The consortium produces more Web services standards than any other organisation along with standards for security, e-business, and standardisation efforts in the public sector and for application-specific markets. Founded in 1993, OASIS has more than 5,000 participants representing over 600 organisations and individual members in 100 countries.

ASIS is distinguished by its transparent governance and operating procedures. Members themselves set the OASIS technical agenda, using a lightweight process expressly designed to promote industry consensus and unite disparate efforts. Completed work is ratified by open ballot. Governance is accountable and unrestricted. Officers of both the OASIS Board of Directors and Technical Advisory Board are chosen by democratic election to serve two-year terms. Consortium leadership is based on individual merit and is not tied to financial contribution, corporate standing, or special appointment.
