Specification Overview:

Electronic Court Filing Version 4.01 defines the LegalXML Electronic Court  
Filing 4.01 (ECF 4.0) specification, which consists of a set of  
non-proprietary XML and Web services specifications, along with clarifying  
explanations and amendments to those specifications, that have been added for  
the purpose of promoting interoperability among electronic court filing  
vendors and systems.  ECF Version 4.01 is a maintenance release to address  
several minor schema and definition issues identified by implementers of the  
ECF 4.0 specification

Electronic Court Filing 4.0 Web Services Service Interaction Profile  
Version 2.01 defines a Service Interaction Profile, as defined in section 5  
of the LegalXML Electronic Court Filing 4.0 (ECF 4.0) specification.  The Web  
Services Service Interaction Profile may be used to transmit ECF 4.0 messages  
between Internet-connected systems.

Electronic Court Filing 4.0 Portable Media Service Interaction Profile  
Version 2.0 defines a Service Interaction Profile, as defined in section 5 of  
the LegalXML Electronic Court Filing 4.0 (ECF 4.0) specification.  The  
Portable Media Service Interaction Profile may be used to store ECF 4.0  
message transmissions to portable media in the absence of an active network  
between the sending and receiving MDEs.

Public Review Period:

The public review starts Monday, 3 October 2011 and ends Tuesday, 18 October  
2011. The specifications were previously submitted for 30-day public reviews  
[2]. This 15-day review is limited in scope to changes made from the previous  
review. 

Changes are highlighted in the diff-marked PDF files included with each  
review package.

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.
