The OASIS ebXML Messaging Services TC members have produced an updated Committee Specification Draft (CSD) and submitted this specification for 15-day public review:
AS4 Profile of ebMS 3.0 Version 1.0
Committee Specification Draft 04 /
Public Review Draft 03
25 May 2011
Specification Overview:
The AS4 profile of the ebMS 3.0 specification has
been developed in order to bring continuity to the principles and simplicity
that made AS2 successful, while adding better compliance to Web services
standards, and features such as message pulling capability and a built-in
Receipt mechanism. Using ebMS 3.0 as a base, a subset of functionality is
defined along with implementation guidelines adopted based on the "just-enough"
design principles and AS2 functional requirements to trim down ebMS 3.0 into a
more simplified and AS2-like specification for Web Services B2B messaging.
TC Description:
The ebXML Messaging Services Technical Committee designs
Web Services-based messaging protocols for the transport, routing and packaging
of B2B transactions.
Public Review Period:
The public review starts tomorrow, July 13, 2011 and
ends July 28, 2011. The specification was previously submitted for a 15-day
public review on 23 October 2009 [2]. This 15-day review is limited in scope to
changes made from the previous review.
Changes are highlighted in the diff-marked PDF file [3].
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.
