OASIS Open

UBL V2.2 has been presented to the membership by the OASIS Universal Business Language TC [1] as a Candidate OASIS Standard. Do you consent or object to its approval as an OASIS Standard?

The Universal Business Language (UBL) is an open library of standard electronic XML business documents for procurement and transportation such as purchase orders, invoices, transport logistics and waybills. It is designed to operate within a standard business framework such as ISO/IEC 15000 (ebXML) to provide a complete, standards-based infrastructure that can extend the benefits of existing EDI systems to businesses of all sizes.

Version 2.2 is completely backward-compatible with UBL 2.0. UBL is freely available to everyone without legal encumbrance or licensing fees.

The TC has received 3 Statements of Use from JAVEST, the eSENS eTendering pilot, and the Norwegian Agency for Public Management and eGovernment (Difi) [3].

This is a call to the Organizational Members of OASIS to consent or object to this approval. You are welcome to register your consent explicitly on the ballot; however your consent is assumed unless you register an objection [3]. To register an objection, you must:

1. Indicate your objection on this ballot, and

2. Provide a reason for your objection and/or a proposed remedy to the TC.

You may provide the reason in the comment box or by email to the Technical Committee on its comment mailing list or, if you are a member of the TC, to the TC's mailing list [3]. If you provide your reason by email, please indicate in the subject line that this is in regard to the Call for Consent. Note that failing to provide a reason and/or remedy may result in an objection being deemed invalid.
