Approval of WS-Federation v1.2 as an OASIS Standard

To OASIS members:

     The ballot for approval of  WS-Federation v1.2 as OASIS Standard, announced at [1], was completed with sufficient affirmative votes to approve the specification. However, because there were negative votes, the Web Services Federation Technical Committee was required to decide how to proceed, per the OASIS TC Process (at [2]). The TC gave consideration to the negative vote but has voted to request the specification be approved. (See [3].)

     We are pleased, therefore, to announce that WS-Federation v1.2 has been approved as an OASIS Standard. The submission of the approved standard can be found at [4].

     Congratulations to the TC, and the community of implementers, developers and users who have brought the work successfully to culmination.

Mary
