[tc-voting] Department of the Navy Votes

Title: Department of the Navy Votes

The Department of the Navy votes on the approval of the following Committee Specifications as OASIS Standards:

ebXML CPPA v2:  NAY

Comment:  The Department of the Navy (DON) vote of NAY on the ebXML CPPA specification is specifically related to the pending IP claim by IBM.  The DON is in the process of adopting an open standards approach to XML implementation. Therefore, OASIS TC specifications encumbered by IP claims, are a significant hindrance to this approach. 

SAML v1:  YEA
